Alternative or Private Student Loans
|
Alternative or private loan programs are designed to bridge the funding gap when savings, grants, federal loans, and other resources
are not enough or simply not available. YSU encourages all students to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) and exhaust all eligibility for federal funds before applying for alternative loans. Alternative loans are provided by private lenders
and approval is based upon the credit worthiness of the borrower and/or co-signer.
