Private (Alternative) Education Loan Lenders Used By UGA Students
Students who wish to apply for a private education loan should contact their bank, credit union, or other private lending institution to determine whether they offer private (alternative) education loans.
During the most recent Award Year, students enrolled in UGA degree programs received private education loans from numerous lenders. The lenders are presented in random order. UGA does not endorse or recommend any private education loan company, and this is not a preferred lender list. It is provided only as a courtesy. Students are free to use a lender not on this list. UGA receives no benefits from any lender.

Students may also conduct an internet search for “private student loans.” Because lenders determine their own terms, we strongly recommend comparing the following before applying:
- Application process and eligibility requirements
- Interest rates (fixed vs. variable) and rate ranges
- Repayment options and term lengths
- Fees (e.g., origination, late, or prepayment penalties)
