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.

These loans are made by Sallie Mae Bank or a lender partner. Academic Federal Credit Union is not the creditor for these loans and is compensated by Sallie Mae for the referral of loan customers.
