Offered in conjunction with a bank in D.C. It allows a student to borrow up to I forget how much, and defer paying the principle for up to 4 years (or when you graduate, I would assume). During those 4 years, you only pay interest, with a rate calculated from the T-Bill rate. As I understand it, it is a true loan; that is, you could apply, get the check, and by, say, an IBM PC (an example!!!). You can pay it all off at any time, and such. Seems to me we could really fox Apple and get a loan sponsered by Apple and buy a NeXT!!!!! :-) >| Steve DeJarnett | Smart Mailers -> steve@polyslo.CalPoly.EDU Chris -=- "There is really no point in a .signature, is there?"
