Alternative sTUDENT Loans

 

If you have exhausted all federal, state, and institutional forms of financial aid eligibility, but are still in need of additional financial resources to help meet your educational costs, then an alternative student loan may represent a viable option for you. Note: The terms and conditions for alternative student loans are typically less attractive than those associated with federally guaranteed student loans.

Eligibility for an alternative student loan is generally premised on your and, possibly, a cosignor's credit worthiness. If you are approved for an alternative student loan by a private student loan provider, you may be eligible to receive up to your total cost of education for the loan period minus any other student financial aid you are eligible to receive.

Below are listed the private student loan providers that have been utilized by K-State students for the past four years (since 2006). K-State has no relationship with and does not endorse any of the providers listed below. Consequently, the K-State Office of Student Financial Assistance urges all students to carefully research the terms and conditions of any private student loan program before entering into a borrower/lender relationship.
