About this service

Citizens Bank offers private student loans designed to cover costs that federal aid may not reach, such as tuition, books, and housing. These loans are typically used by students or parents once they have exhausted federal grant and loan options. Approval and interest rates are heavily influenced by the creditworthiness of the borrower or a co-signer. It is important to compare these private rates against federal options before signing.

Lenders look at your credit history, industry experience, and collateral. The SBA itself doesn't lend the money, but guarantees a portion of it to the bank.

What's the difference between an SBA loan and a disaster loan?

An SBA loan is for starting or expanding a business, while an SBA disaster loan helps homeowners and businesses recover from declared disasters.
