Disbursement fees, if assessed, are added to the disbursed amounts, increasing the loan amount.

** This repayment example is based on a typical K-12 Family Education Loan made to a borrower (on behalf of a student) for a $10,500 loan, with two disbursements, a 3% disbursement fee, and a 16.01% variable APR. It works out to 4 payments of $185.54, 31 payments of $389.79 and one payment of $357.23, for a Total Loan Cost of $13,182.88. Variable rates may increase over the life of the loan.

Borrow responsibly
We encourage students and families to start with savings, grants, scholarships, and federal student loans to pay for college. Students and families should evaluate all anticipated monthly loan payments, and how much the student expects to earn in the future, before considering a private student loan.

All institutions must be licensed or accredited by the department of education in the states in which they operate, if required by that state, or must be accredited by a recognized national education association. Proof of student enrollment must be provided through school certification, an enrollment agreement, or tuition bill. Borrower/Cosigner must be a U.S. citizen or U.S. permanent resident. Applications are subject to a requested minimum loan amount of $1,000. Current credit and other eligibility criteria apply.

Loan amount cannot exceed the cost of attendance less financial aid received as certified by the school. Sallie Mae reserves the right to approve a lower loan amount than the school-certified amount.

Although we do not charge you a penalty or fee if you prepay your loan, any prepayment will be applied as provided in your promissory note: First to Unpaid Fees and costs, then to Unpaid Interest, and then to Current Principal.

Borrowers and cosigners who have an available FICO® Score and a Sallie Mae loan with a current balance greater than $0, may receive their score quarterly after the first disbursement of their loan. The FICO® Score provided to you is the FICO® Score 8 based on TransUnion data, and is the same score that Sallie Mae uses, along with other information, to manage your account. FICO® Scores and associated educational content are provided solely for your own non-commercial personal review, use and benefit. This benefit may change or end in the future. FICO® is a registered trademark of the Fair Isaac Corporation in the United States and other countries.

K-12 Family Education Loans are made by Sallie Mae Bank or a lender partner.
