New federal plan will save students millions Amber Pace Senior News Editor President Clinton plans to help American students complete their higher education by easing up on the financial burdens. The average price tag for a masters degree in the United States these days is an estimated $30,000. Many high school graduates are learning the value of differed gratification, the concept of paying now and hopefully getting something better in the future. However, one of the many problems happens to be student loans. That deferred gratification could be a very long deferment due to high interest rates and the typical low income of a newly graduated student. Clinton announced last Friday his plans to install a new federal loan system. The new idea will allow college and university students to combine their loans into a single federal loan. By consolidating loans, students will avoid multi-interest rates, and large fixed monthly payments. Now the federal government is allowing students to borrow directly from the federal government and to choose the best way for their personal lives to pay that money back. Clinton said, "We already give Americans looking forward to their retirement a chance to save in what we call an individual retirement account now, we offer people at the beginning of their careers a chance to pay for college in what we call individual education accounts." There are two ways for students to go about joining the group of education account holders. First, apply for a new loan from a school that is part of the direct loan program. So far this year 300,000 students have already opted to do this type of borrowing at 104 participating colleges and schools throughout the country. The Clinton administration projects that by next year 15,000 schools, 40 of American colleges will offer the new program to their students. The second way to put Clinton's new loan plan to work for you is to consolidate loans that you have already acquired into one loan torm the federal government.
