Student Loans

Nowhere. Just kidding. I have 2 student loans from ABSA that I'm currently busy paying off, what a bitch. Was pretty easy getting the loans from them, paying it back, not so easy.
 
Yeah, I'd say avoid it if you can. Unless you're planning on earning a fair bit of cash as soon as you graduate then prepare yourself for a couple years of giving a big chunk of your meager earnings right back to the bank.

Afraid I don't have the amount of money for the course that they asking since with my current qualifications I have yet to get a job in a year. And I am already a year behind my studies because of stupid demlin.

other way is to go to a company in the same field are are studying whom is giving out student loans or sponsorship for studies and see if they would. they will own your ass for a year or two, but at least you will have a job after studies. just make very sure of the terms and conditions...
 
On the same subject, does anyone have a faint idea of how much a B.Com course through Unisa will cost? Roughly? I'm looking at doing it in about 4-5 years because I'm currently employed as well.

I think the banks are your best bet, unless, as suggested, you get a bursary from a company which is pretty unlikely unless you've been working there, or have been employed there for a while.

The best option would be to make a loan with your folks, if that is at all possible :D

I'll decide when I'm i bit further into the course. I must also still decide whether I'm going to stay in the Telecom industry. As I understand, you start with the base subjects first and then you decide what you want to specialize in.

Ah nice, that seems reasonable. Thanks dude

I suppose I could have just looked that up myself :p haha, I'm such a lazy bastard :D
 
Also I agree, its not lekker to be indebted to a bank.

Maybe try find a company that can help you out. They are supposed to get tax credits for it.
