Private Student Loans
Prior to considering private student loans, students are strongly encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Private Student Loans should be considered after all other sources of financial aid (grants, scholarships, federal work-study, and federal student loans) have been exhausted.
The IU East Office of Financial Aid will review and certify Private / Alternative Loans for eligible students with your preferred lender.
If you apply for a Private Student Loan with a lender, please contact our office so that we may review your eligibility to certify the loan.
