Dear Parents, We wanted to let you know that private lenders are updating interest rates on student loans. If you or your student need more funding for college be sure to shop around NOW for the lowest rates. Remember that not everyone qualifies for the same rate at the same lender. It all comes down to details, such as: credit score, income to debt ratio, term (how long you take to pay back the loan), repayment type, and more. Here's a helpful guide to rate shopping: 1. Research rates and apply* to at least three lenders: College Ave (A R2C preferred lender.)
Ascent (A R2C preferred lender.)
SoFi (A R2C preferred lender.)
Citizens (Through Credible - a website to check rates from multiple lenders.)
Sallie Mae (A R2C preferred lender.)
*Borrowers can apply to multiple lenders within a 30 day window of their first application, without additional impact to their credit score.
2. Once you've checked rates, create a free account at joinjuno.com. It takes less than a minute to sign up.
Juno negotiates better student loan rates for groups of student loan borrowers. You'll be able to quickly: If You or Your Student Sign a Loan With Juno's Primary Lending Partner You'll: Receive 2.0% Cash Back from Juno (e.g., $400 on a $20K loan)! Be Eligible for a Rate Match Guarantee! This means if you find a better rate from an eligible private lender, Juno will match it and increase your cash back to 3.0% (e.g., $600 on a $20K loan).
🚫 There are no application or origination fees, and you won't be charged a prepayment penalty.
Already Accepted a Loan From Another Lender? No problem. You can still apply for a loan through Juno’s primary lender, and if you find the rate is lower, you can always cancel the original loan as long as the money hasn’t been sent to the college. |
