Private Loans
Alternative Loans
Alternative loans are available to degree-seeking students who need additional funds to meet the Cost of Attendance. They are only awarded after the student has received a Stafford Loan. Students applying for an alternative loan may borrow up to the total budget for the current academic year. These loans are in the student’s name and approved based on the borrower’s credit and work history. The interest rates on these loans are variable, and most go into repayment six months after the separation date.
Additional Alternative Loan Programs:
Palmetto Assistant Loan
Citi Assist Loan
Sallie Mae Signature Loan
Preferred Select Loan
CampusDoor
SC Teachers Loan
The SC Teachers Loan is available to SC residents enrolled in a teacher education program. Additional eligibility requirements, loan details, and application can be found at www.scstudentloan.org.
*As with all student loans, students are encouraged to only borrow what is absolutely needed.
