Only your previous federal loan history affects your ability to get most federal student loans.
For private student loans, your debt (including debts you cosigned on) are a factor that would be considered by most lenders in making a credit decision.
Your potential lender may ask themself: "If this person had to repay the loan they cosigned on, and all the other debts on their credit report, plus the loan they are asking us to approve, could we expect them to repay based on what we know about their income and credit history?"

Yes.
As long as loan stays current, credit & other obligations irrelevant.
No, a student loan with low interest rates, will not affect your course load at all. The loan will be the same regardless of what course you're enrolled on.
If the student loan is taken out in the name of the student then no. The student's credit score is separate from anyone else's. If the student loan is taken out in the name of the parent or with them as cosigner then yes - their credit scores would come into play.
Consult an attorney. You may be able to show criminal fraud.
Be very cautious about co-signing for a loan. If the primary borrower defaults, you are responsible for the loan payment. It also may affect your ability to get a loan if your debt to income ratio is already high.
It will appear as an obligation and as such limit the amount that will be considered for total monthly payment. No I don't think it will affect your your credit score.
yes
Is there any advantages to co-signing for a home loan
If you are unemployed you are in no position to co sign a student loan. By co signing you guarantee that the loan will be paid. If the primary borrower stops paying you will be held responsible for paying the balance of the loan- in full. The default rate on student loans is high and the debt grows rapidly. The lender may or may not allow you to take on that huge risk.If you are unemployed you are in no position to co sign a student loan. By co signing you guarantee that the loan will be paid.

If a student is unable to repay a loan, then he or she should first talk to their lender. This will give the person a better chance of reaching an agreement, rather than ignoring the payments and defaulting on the loan.
