Welcome to FastChoice
Private loans, also known as alternative loans, are used by students and families to bridge the gap between cost of education and the financial aid award. These loans are for credit-worthy borrowers and are not based on financial need.
The University recommends that you exhaust all grant, scholarship and federal loan options prior to obtaining a private student loan. For more information on applying for financial aid, federal loans, etc., explore our page about applying for financial aid.
