In a way it is true, Student Loans are very difficult to discharge in the bankruptcy and nearly impossible to settle.The true of the matter is that student loans divide between two types: subsidized and unsubsidized. So, which type of Loans can be settled?
student loan settlement
There are two forms of Student Loans, those that can be settled and those that are not. Many of us hear the terms; subsidizes and unsubsidized. Subsidized loan is usually backed by federal government (the one about to default, unless the credit borrowing ceiling is once again raised). Nonetheless, subsidized loans are when the Federal Government paid the interest on those loans while the individual was attending school. The Federal Perkins Loans are an example of a subsidized loan. There are also Stafford Loans available for those that don't meet the criteria for Perkins loan.

Stafford Loan break into two categories we just discussed above -Subsidized and Unsubsidized. Folks would tun to subsidized loans first because they're based on need, unsubsidized aren't. If you had a Stafford loan, the government paid the interest while you were enrolled in school and 9 months after your graduation. Folks that did not qualify for subsidized loan would eventually turn to unsubsidized loans for further funding. Some of you would be surprised, but neither of these loans require a credit check. In addition, many banks and financial institutions offer financial support in a form of unsubsidized or sometimes called Private loan. These types of loans carry higher variable interest rates and are not backed by the federal government unlike subsidized Perkins and Stafford loans. The interest rate in these loans like a clock, starts ticking from the day the check is disbursed. In another words the creditor begins to profit before you step into that classroom. What is more horrifying is the fact that private creditors under many circumstances will disburse funds directly to students. For the interest rate these folks charge, it is very common to see room unboard, textbooks, school supplies, electronic gadgets even cars become fully financed by a simple student loan. One of the reasons it is happening, is due to feeling of security these folks obtained from the federal government. Ever since student loans became treated in similar way as federal debt, private lenders began to feel invincible. They know that once a loan is taken out, it will be eventually paid off 3 times. student loan bankruptcy
In conclusion, it is possible to settle student loans, as loan as it is not federally insured. Private loans just like many other forms of debt are still considered an unsecured debt. This means that there isn't anything tied to that money other then you that guarantee repayment. With any other type of unsecured debt this can play in your favor, because most creditors are willing to accept something for the loan over nothing, especially in the economy that we're in today. Keep in mind, that most of the time a lender will consider settlement only if the loan has been defaulted."
