Student Travel Loan

Hello everyone

I am desperate to go travelling after I finish Uni this Summer, and have been saving hard. But a few unforseen costs have arisen and it now looks like Ill need to take a loan.

Do any of you have any ideas of a good one, or if there is a specific student travel loan?!

I'd be grateful for your help,
Harriet

    A loan company will be concerned about your ability to make the monthly payments.... how are you planning to make them.

    Maybe a bit of an odd suggestion, but why not work for a bit and save up the money to go travelling?
  • Steady on there ILW.
    I was thinking that myself but I am not brave enough to say so.
