Private student loan

Undergraduate & Graduate Loans
An iHELP private student loan can help cover the funding gap left for college students after they have taken advantage of federal loans, grants, scholarships and personal contributions.

Student Loan Consolidation

Student Loan Refinancing
Simplify life by refinancing college student loans into a single payment; doing so may also reduce your monthly payment. Private student loans, federal loans, and Parent Plus loans can be refinanced into one manageable payment.
