Also, I realize that graduating debt free would be best, but for some of us that is not really an option, do you have any recommendations as to student loans?

Only thing I would add is to be honest about you financial situation with your mates so you are all on the same page when you go out to club. Avoid people who think they are high class and only want to go to fancy clubs or drink premium alcohol. A friend dated a girl like this in college and it broke him financially. Better to be honest about who you are and manage other peoples expectations instead of destroying your financial backbone and picking up expensive habits...
