Private Loan Information for Students

Private Loan Information

Some students require additional resources to help fund their education. Privates loans are provided by banks and lenders.

Before resorting to a private loan you should exhaust all alternatives. Look into the following options:

  • File a FAFSA and borrow all federal loan eligibility.
  • Use earnings from work to help cover educational expenses.
  • Budget Wisely. If you live like a college student while in college, maybe you won't need to live like a college student after graduation
  • Sit down with your parents to see if they are able and willing to provide additional funding for your college education.
  • Art Center offers a payment plan that can be used to make payments over the course of the semester.
  • Look for outside scholarship funding. A good resource is available at: https://inside.artcenter.edu/go/outsidescholarship
