Competitive Private Education
Loan Lenders
The purpose of
private/alternative loans is to provide secondary
resources for students who have exhausted federal
loan program options.
The list below has been compiled to help Washington
State University students negotiate the array of available private
loan providers and loan products, and to simplify
the loan process.
While these lenders have been evaluated
closely on the basis of past performance, customer
service, cost and borrower benefits, students have
the right to select the lender or loan product of
their choice. In
fact, borrowers are strongly encouraged to conduct
their own consumer research.
Washington
State University utilizes electronic processes that require participation by lenders. Lenders on
this list have agreed to comply with the methods
necessary for the timely processing and delivery of
private loan funds.
Students are not required to use lenders on
this list. No student will be penalized for choosing
a lender not on the list. However, if
your lender of choice does not participate in the
WSU electronic process for private loans, the
disbursement of your loan funds could be delayed as
a result of that lender’s process.
