The FAFSA application is required for federal loans. Please use school code 001315. First-time borrowers will also need to complete a debt management session and a Master Promissory Note (MPN) for each federal loan.

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.

  • 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)

There are two lenders available for international students without U.S. cosigners.  Please be advised that international students may only borrow up for student charges and health insurance. 

Quorum

  • May borrow up to annual student charges and health insurance 
  • No fees required
  • Can submit one application for entire program*

*Submit one application for Quorum for the entire program to establish a line of credit. The maximum loan amount is $81,080.92. For your second year (Fall 2019), as a returning borrower, you can request to draw down the amount you would like to apply for.
