Fastweb Scholarship Information
Interested in earning a degree, but worried about the cost? A common mistake people make when applying for a scholarship is to not have an education plan in place.

The first, and most crucial step, is to identify what you're interested in studying and research schools that offer degree programs that best match your interests.

Fastweb Student Loan Information
If you’re in the market for student loans, you might be overwhelmed and wondering where you should start. The first step is to educate yourself about what types of loans are out there. Student loans are generally needed when financial aid runs out, or if you don’t qualify for financial aid. Compare each type and consider which loan will be best for you and your situation.
