Graduate Loan Query

    I am currently studying my Masters degree and want to take out a student loan of €8k which I hope to pay back over 3 years perhaps.

    Does anyone know what options I should go for and which bank is the best?

    I always thought a graduate loan meant you paid it off as soon as you got a graduate job but given the current economic climate, this seems to have gone out the window.

    Thanks for all advice.

    Are you working / have a regular income ?

    A graduate loan is usually for people who are finished college, They use to get discounts as they were regarded an slightly less risk, being edumecated and all that, not sure if they're still in vogue though.

    unfortunately for you, any lender will probably assess you on your ability to repay the debt now, regardless of your future prospects:(
