Private Education Loans

Private education loans are offered by many lending institutions to assist students and their families with meeting college expenses. These programs are designed for undergraduate and graduate students, parents, and international students. Students considering a private education loan program should carefully consider the terms and conditions of the loan.

The maximum amount a student may borrow per academic period is the total cost of attendance budget minus all financial aid received. It is recommended that borrowers use their potential federal loan eligibility prior to exploring private education loans.
