Private Loans

If you would like to apply for an outside private loan, you may do so by going to Private Lending for Higher Education.  Before applying for a private loan, we encourage you to pursue the availability of Federal Direct Loans. Loans borrowed from the Federal government through the Direct Loan Program offer students a low-interest option compared to alternative loans through banks and other lending institutions.

As a student, to apply for a private loan, you will need a credit-worthy co-signer.  Carefully review the terms of the loan, considering the interest rates, fees, and repayment terms.  A completed ‘Self Certification’ form is required in order for the loan to be disbursed from the lender.
