The Student PIRGs envision a world in which qualified students who want to go to college can do so, without burdensome student loan debt to hold them back after graduation.  In the new debt-for-diploma era, more needs to be done to for students who borrow to pay for college.

We're working to raise awareness about the dangers of private student loans and to make sure private lenders don't rip off students.

We are collecting copies of loan contracts from private student loans in order to identify the terms and conditions that hurt you the most - private loans can have terrible terms and conditions. We plan to identify the most common dangers and release a report to the media.

Can you help out by emailing or faxing a copy of your private loan contract or promissory note? Make sure to black out all your personal information, but please leave the year you signed the contract.
