Private loans

A private student loan is a non-governmental loan offered by a third-party lender specifically for post-secondary educational expenses. Students are strongly encouraged to pursue the availability of government student financial assistance options first and to be a savvy consumer in terms of weighing lending options in regards to amounts, whether a co-signer is required, interest rates and repayment plans.
