Compare Private Student Loans

Private Student Loans help cover the difference between your total cost of education and other financial aid you have received. Private loans can be used to cover educational expenses such as tuition, books, room and board, school fees, student computers, supplies and loan fees.

School Certified And Direct to Student Loan Comparison

The School Certified Loan is disbursed to the school's financial aid office. In some cases, this type of loan can have a higher approval rating because it is certified by the school. With the Direct to Student Loan, funds are disbursed in the form of a check made co-payable to the borrower and to the co-signer.
