Many private loans are available to U.S. citizens, permanent residents and international students with a U.S. cosigner. Here's a list of private lenders used by Anderson students. Please refer to the private loan guide to obtain more information. You can also refer to the UCOP's Preferred Private Lender List and UC Code of Conduct for Preferred Lender Arrangement.

Fixed and variable interest rates
Eligibility depends on borrower’s credit and income-to-debt ratio (better to apply when still employed)
Having a cosigner with a good credit score can lower the interest rate
Repayment typically begins six months after student graduates or drops below half-time enrollment (4 units)

The following private lenders are available for international students without U.S. cosigners. All international private student loans are made by the specific lending institution and not the University.
