About Interest Rates

Should I choose a variable or fixed interest rate?

Variable interest rates can change over time, so if your interest rate goes up, your monthly payment can go up as well. Fixed interest rates are usually higher than variable rates, but the fixed rate stays the same over the life of the loan. Learn more about student loan interest rates.

How do I know what my interest rate will be?

Your interest rate will be determined by several factors when you apply, most importantly your credit history and that of your cosigner, if applicable.

Your interest rate options will be presented during the application process, at which point you can choose between a specific variable interest rate and specific fixed interest rate.

Rate Discounts

You’ve got two great ways to lower your interest rate

• You must be enrolled as an undergraduate student at an eligible school, seeking a degree, certificate or license. You may qualify even if you are enrolled less than half time.
• You must be a U.S. citizen or U.S. national, a permanent resident alien, or an international student who is a temporary resident alien with a current U.S. address.
• You may need a cosigner, unless you meet all requirements to qualify for the loan (income, credit, and ability to repay). Temporary resident aliens will need a qualified cosigner who is a U.S. citizen or
  U.S. national, or a permanent resident alien.
