I can tell you anecdotally this is not true. Or atleast it wasnt 10 years ago. I know. I have loans I’m paying and I was encouraged to take out the max because it’s basically free money and I don’t have to pay until after I graduate. That was the extent of my consultation. No video. No explanation of payments plans or interest or anything

Every student taking out a direct subsidized or unsubsidized federal student loan signs the agreement in the link on my post. Before signing it they watch a video. I witnessed my own son do this just last year.
