Robbing banks might help you pay for college, but good luck finishing that degree from the slammer. Luckily, Stafford Loans make it a little easier to get money from the government. (Please don't go full Yosemite Sam on us; you'll regret it.) 

Stafford Loans generally offer low interest rates and flexible repayment schedules (source), which will help you out when it's time to pay them back.

Maybe you can use some of that extra cash to take your parents out to dinner. Aw, shucks.
