how student loans work
A student loan from Summit means:
- No fees. Summit doesn’t charge you anything to set up your loan (no origination fee) and there’s no penalty if you pay the loan off early.
- Great student loan rates. See how we compare to other lenders.
- An easy, one-time application. You can get approved for all the money you need to finish your degree at one time – instead of having to re-apply every year.*
- You won’t have to make payments while you’re still in school.
- Flexible repayment terms. Summit will help you set up a payment plan that you can afford.
Student Loan Refinance
Want to lower your monthly payment? Refinance your student loans – or consolidate multiple loans – with Summit and you could save a little money on every payment . And a lot of money on your entire loan!
To apply for a loan you need to be:
- A U.S. citizen or permanent resident
- 18 or older
- Enrolled in an eligible school at least half-time
- Pursuing a degree program
Think you won’t qualify for a loan on your own?
Apply with a co-signer who has a good credit rating. This can help you get the loan you need and could help you get it at a better interest rate. That means you’ll have lower loan payments and owe a lower total amount.
When it’s time to repay the loan, make your payments on time for at least 24 months in a row, and you might be able to have the co-signer’s name taken off the loan.
