Credit score: A credit score is based on a statistical analysis of a person's credit files to represent the creditworthiness of that person. Lenders, such as banks and credit card companies, use credit scores to evaluate the potential risk posed by lending money to consumers. Lenders use credit scores to determine who qualifies for a loan, at what interest rate, and what credit limits.

Stafford Loan: A federal Stafford loan is an education loan borrowed directly from the federal government (Direct Loans), with an interest rate and other terms that are set by the federal government. Students must file a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) in order to be considered for Stafford loan eligibility. Undergraduate students are eligible to receive Stafford loans, which can be either subsidized or unsubsidized.

Any other type of loan: One example of another type of loan is the federal Perkins loan. The Perkins Loan is awarded to students with exceptional financial need. This is a campus-based loan program, with the school acting as the lender using a limited pool of funds provided by the federal government.

Private loans: Private loans, also known as alternative loans, are offered by private lenders. There are no federal application forms to complete. Some examples of commonly used private loans include Sallie Mae Smart Option Loan, Wells Fargo Collegiate Loan, Chase Select Loan, loans from credit unions, and loans from states such as NYHELPs.

Work-study job: Federal work-study jobs are offered to students with financial need, allowing them to work part-time to earn money to help pay their education expenses. Students must file a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) in order to be considered for the Federal Work-Study (FWS) program. Work-study jobs are often located on the campus of a student's school and may or may not be related to a student's course of study.

Pell grant: A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. The amount of the grant depends on your financial need, costs to attend school, status as a full-time or part-time student, and plans to attend school for a full academic year or less.

Grant or scholarship: Financial aid that does not have to be repaid. Grants are often awarded based on financial need, while scholarships are usually awarded based on skill or ability.
