Student loans take years to repay and it is easier to continue raking up debts once you get into the habit. You will also need to find supplementary finance elsewhere because government schemes are unlikely to cover all your expenses and costs while you are in school.

Commercial schemes will certainly cost you more to pay back since they will be charged at higher interest rates and they might not offer such favourable conditions. Depend on the lender scheme you choose, you can be treated much the same way as a standard borrower and you might have to make repayments before you graduate and get a paying job.  You will have a lot less flexibility here financially because a commercial loan could dig into your income quite significantly once you start working. But a student loan for higher education is still your best bet if you need a loan for studying.
