Say you take out loans to get through college and you begin to pay them. Can you pay them off with an IRA?

Question, sorry to get off topic of OP.

If I contribute $15k over 3 years to a traditional IRA and I withdraw $15k, it will only be taxed at my regular tax % correct? If I withdrew $17k, the $2k would be taxed at an additional 10%. Is that correct? I've never fully understood what the additional 10% is on.
