PRIVATE LOANS

Private Loans

Please make sure that you first consider all possible Grants,  Scholarships, Federal Stafford and Parent PLUS loans that are available, before you apply for Private Educational loans. Private Loans generally have higher interest rates that will cost you more in the long term.

Private Loans (or Supplemental Loans) are loans based on ability to repay and credit rating. You do not need to fill out the FAFSA in order to apply for these loans. They are not based on financial need. Some of these loans will ask for a co-signer and most of the interest rates will be higher than the rates for a Federal Stafford or PLUS loan.

You may choose any Lender you wish. Please research the Repayment Options, Interest Rates, and Borrower Benefits to help determine which loans will most benefit the student. Private loans suggested for those attending the Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts include the following:
