You may qualify for federal student loans. We encourage prospective customers to exhaust federal student loan options before applying for a CampusDoor loan or other private student loan, as federal loans are often less expensive and offer the widest variety of repayment options.
All loans are subject to credit approval. Lender is Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB. Equal Opportunity Lender. The AAA Student Lending Program is compensated for the referral of private loan customers to the Lender.
1. At all times the discount rates and cosigner release terms are subject to change. The on-time benefit must be earned. Cosigner release is contingent upon the borrower’s credit profile which will be reviewed by the Lender prior to release. Loan delinquency, default, or the use of forbearance may result in the revocation of all borrower benefits. Borrowers will receive a 0.5% interest rate reduction for borrowers who elect to have monthly principal and interest payments transferred electronically from a savings or checking account. The interest rate reduction will begin when automatic principal and interest payments start, and will remain in effect as long as automatic payments continue without interruption. This reduced interest rate will return to contract rate if automatic payments are cancelled, rejected or returned for any reason. Borrowers will receive an additional 0.5% rate reduction after 48 consecutive on-time payments.
2. The repayment period may be less than the 25-year maximum allowed depending on the borrower’s indebtedness at the beginning of his or her repayment period and the requirement that the borrower either satisfies a $50 minimum monthly payment amount (level schedule) or the terms of a graduated repayment schedule.
3. Mississippi residents under the age of 21 may borrow with written consent from a parent or guardian.
4. In all cases, interest rates and loan fees vary and are based upon borrower and/or cosigner (where applicable) credit profile, and other underwriting criteria. See our Rates and Fees page for Annual Percentage Rate (APR) examples and other important information about our private student loans.
