What are Alternative Loans?
Alternative Loans, also known as private loans, help bridge the gap between the actual cost of your education and the amount the government allows you to borrow in its programs. Alternative Loans are offered by private lenders and there are no federal forms to complete.
Who is eligible?
The eligibility requirements vary depending on the private lender. But in general loans are given to students based upon enrollment, class standing and a credit check.
How do you apply?
Submit an application to the private lender (see PLU's list of preferred lenders).
How much can I borrow?
