Types of Financial Aid

Private Loans

Private loans are available from a variety of banks and lenders. The terms and rates for alternative loans are usually not as good as the Federal Stafford Loans, but are a better option than using your credit card to pay your educational costs.

Applying for and Receiving an Alternative Loan:

You can apply for an alternative loan by contacting the lender directly.

• Usually the lender will require our office to certify that you are a student and what your costs are for the year.
• The bank will send the loan funds directly to the school.
• Should you want to check on the status of your loan, you need to check with the lender directly.
