About the Loan
If a student does not qualify for federally funded loans, such as Federal Direct Subsidized or Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans, the student may be able to finance their education with a private loan. Alternative loans are credit-based consumer loans that can be used for any educational related purpose. Most loans require that the applicant must have established credit history to be approved.
