When Federal Aid just isn't enough, NASA Federal can help with the Credit Union Student Choice Loan Program

The cost of college continues to rise, making it harder to afford. At NASA Federal, we’re committed to helping students find the best funding for their education. We’ve partnered with other credit unions to form the Credit Union Student Choice Loan Program that can help you and your family fill in the gaps that federal aid may leave behind. With lower interest rates and no origination fees, you’ll get significant cost-savings by choosing your credit union’s student loan over other alternatives.

Credit Union Student Choice Loan Program Benefits:

• Deferred Repayment Option
• Zero Origination Fees
• Low Interest Rate
• Up to $75,000 Line of Credit
• Flexible Repayment Options
• Apply online quickly and easily or call 1-800-322-8816 to apply by phone.

Before applying for a Credit Union Student Choice Loan, be sure to follow these steps:

1. Fill out a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form found at fafsa.ed.gov.
2. Apply for scholarships—you may be eligible for many of them.
   • Check with your college financial aid office for listings.
   • Free information on preparing for and funding education beyond high school including a scholarship search wizard can be found at studentaid.ed.gov.
3. Take the maximum amount of Federal Stafford Loans before applying for Student Choice Loan. On subsidized loans while you’re in school:
   • Government pays the interest
   • Caps the interest rate
