    • Before considering a private education loan, it is important that all students review and exhaust their eligibility for federal student aid.

    • SOFI and College Ave offer a pre-approval which is a soft credit check, meaning it won't affect a student's credit score and will give them insight into their eligibility prior to applying for the loan.
