Alternative Loan Programs

There are several alternative loan programs available for students who need additional funds to finance their education. These are private loan products from banks and other lending institutions that are available for educational purposes. Students who are registered for fewer than six credits will not qualify for federal loans but may be eligible for alternative loans. Students may contact the Office of Financial Aid for information regarding alternative loans. Together with other grants or loans, alternative loans may not exceed the student’s cost of attendance as established by the Office for Financial Aid.
