Private Lending for Higher Education
An alternative loan can help pay for things like remaining balances, living expenses, books and supplies, past due balances for previously attending our school and other educationally related expenses. These loans are based on credit and may need a co-signer. These loans are certified by our school and conveniently are credited directly to your account. If your loan exceeds your charges, you will be sent a refund check to use for educationally related expenses.
Please Note: If approved for an alternative loan, your loan will be divided up equally based on the loan period you've requested when you applied. If you wish to have specific amounts per term i.e. $4000 Summer, $5000 Fall, and $6000 Spring, you must let our office know in writing.
Preferred Lenders List of Private Lenders
When applying for an alternative loan for example, please apply for the current academic year only (Summer/Fall/Spring). For instance, if you are starting your program in the Fall term, you would apply for one loan for Fall and Spring. Then you would re-apply for a new loan for the following Summer and beyond. However, if you are starting in the Accelerated program for a Summer term, please apply for the length of your program (Summer, Fall, Spring). The application process will vary depending on the private or alternative loan selected. To apply for an alternative loan option, please click here.
