Private student lending has grown exponentially in the last few years as the need gap has grown. This session will address the common concerns and misconceptions that schools may have regarding creating a list of pre-screened private student loan lenders. Students often rely solely on internet searches to make the important decision of which loan is best for them. The session will: Explain why it is important for FA Offices to assist students with this important decision, discuss tools FA Offices can use to pre-screen lenders, provide information on tools for application, lender choice and ensure schools remain in compliance when assisting students in choosing a lender (ELM, Scholarnet, etc.), address the questions most often asked by schools during RFI process of screening lenders for their list.
