Loan Options
We realize that the choice to attend a private, Christ-centered university is an important decision that also costs a considerable amount of money. Many of our students utilize loan eligibility to pay for school. Select from the links below to learn more about available loans.
How we select lenders:
Cornerstone University seeks to connect our students with lenders who will provide them the best service and borrower benefits. We review our lenders performance and benefits bi-annually. The last review was completed July 2009.
For the current list of preferred lenders, we reviewed information provided by 11 lenders to select the lenders who would best serve our students. In the process, we rated items such as borrower benefits, service to the student, service to the school, business model, type of lender, and other items to determine which lenders would be selected. Each item that was rated was also given a rating for level of importance. The two numbers were combined to provide a final rating for each item.
Based on the information provided and our ratings, we have selected a number of lenders that we are recommending to our students. We believe that students who select one of these lenders will experience a simple process for applying for Federal Loans.
Students are welcome to select lenders not included on the lists and have the right to do so under federal rules. If you select a lender that is not on our list, you will need to provide to Cornerstone the information necessary to process a loan with the lender. To determine what information is needed, please contact the Student Financial Services office at 616-222-1424.
