To minimize borrowing, we also recommend that you consider using your college's monthly payment plan to pay for a portion of your college costs. Payment plans are interest-free but usually require a small fee. Talk to your college financial aid office for further details. When you're ready to apply, simply click the blue Get Started button below. Once you provide your information, you will be presented with the MEFA Loans you are eligible to borrow based on the credit profile of all borrowers on the loan.  As a reminder, MEFA Loans are family loans, and therefore a student borrower will need a co-borrower with a reputable credit history. Learn about co-borrowing loans here.
