Graduate faster. Pay less each month.
Securing a private education loan can help you reduce the effective monthly cost to complete your degree. Private loans are offered by private lenders. AOEU does not participate in any federal student aid or federal student loan program and does not endorse any particular lender.
Be discerning. Not all lenders are the same.
When taking on debt, here are a few things you should keep in mind as you consider your options:
- Revisit trusted lenders you’ve worked with in the past.
- Consult family and friends about lenders they’ve used and recommend.
- Look for private loans with low fixed interest rates.
- Ask the lender about interest deferral while you are in school.
- Ask the lender about loan forgiveness in the event of death or permanent disability.
- Research consumer complaints against the lender from the Better Business Bureau.
