Inflation is at its highest since 1981.

As households experience the impact of inflation on everyday expenses, from groceries to gas, families may not be able to pay as much of the cost of college using their income or even their savings.

That’s why student loans represent a smart way to fill that college-funding gap and fund your child’s education.

Private student loans can cover up to 100% of the cost of attendance

Cost of attendance (COA) includes tuition, fees, room and board, food allowance, books, supplies, transportation, and living and/or personal expenses.

If your financial aid and federal student loans do not cover all of the costs to attend school, a private student loan with College Ave Student Loans can cover 100% of your cost of attendance¹.

Applying for any kind of loan has the potential to be tedious.

The application process for a private student loan with College Ave is simple. Not only that, but College Ave also offers helpful tools to make the experience even more convenient.

Find competitive interest rates

College Ave offers a variety of private student loans to fit the degree you’re studying and your particular financial situation.

In regard to interest rates, there are two main types to choose from: variable and fixed.

A quick tip: Get a lower interest rate by setting up recurring payments

The interest rate on your student loan will determine how much it will cost to borrow money. The higher the rate, the more you will pay in interest.

College Ave reduces your interest rate by 0.25% if you use auto-pa. The process to set up recurring payments is simple and the money you save may potentially represent thousands of dollars.
