First off all a student loan is designed for those who can't afford paying for tuition, so the biggest advantage is that you will obtain your degree. Of course nobody can guarantee that after graduation you'll find a nice job with a decent salary and that you'll be able to repay your loan faster, but still it increases your chances. Without a proper job you won't be able to apply for a mortgage, obtain a low APR credit card, buy a sports car etc... You can always repay your student loan even with a simple credit card if you use wisely your "no APR" period.
