Will you need a co-borrower?
If you have limited or poor credit and income history, we strongly encourage
you to apply with a qualified co-borrower. This will greatly increase your chances
of receiving a loan with the most attractive terms. International students must
apply with a co-borrower who is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident in order
to qualify.
Co-Borrower Release Option
If you apply with a co-borrower, a co-borrower release option is available during
repayment. After you have made all of the first 36 consecutive, scheduled payments
on time and meet our credit requirements, your co-borrower will be eligible
for release from his or her repayment responsibilities upon your request.

1Covers origination, disbursement and repayment fees.
2The variable interest rate is based on the Prime Rate published in "Consumer Rates and Returns to Investor" section of The Wall Street Journal on the twenty-fifth (25th) calendar day of the month immediately proceeding each monthly adjustment date, less a margin of 0.50% for qualifying borrowers. For example, the Variable Rate for the month beginning January 1st will be determined by the applicable Prime Rate published on the preceding December 25th. If The Wall Street Journal is not published or the Prime Rate is not stated, then the Prime Rate will be the applicable Prime Rate next published thereafter. If the Prime Rate is no longer available, we will choose a comparable index. The interest rate is reduced an additional 0.50% when loan payments are made using auto debit. With this rate reduction, qualified borrowers receive prime minus 1%.
3This benefit program may be modified or discontinued at any time without notice. Program changes will not affect loans that qualify for the benefit prior to the time of the change. Earned interest rate benefits terminate if you do not stay in the auto debit plan or upon loan default and/or loan transfer to the guarantor or insurer.
