Make College a Reality!
Get Your Student Loan from
Union Settlement Federal Credit Union.
You know the value of a college education.
College graduates make an average of one million dollars more than those without college degrees - www.studentloanfacts.org. But, because the cost of a university, technical college, other specialized training can be overwhelming, Union Settlement Federal Credit Union offers Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) loans that can help you with the funding you need to pursue your dreams.


FFELP offers loans for students and parents.
Stafford Loans
  • The subsidized Federal Stafford Loan is based on financial need. The government pays the interest while you are in school.
  • The unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan is not based on need but family income is a determining factor. You pay all the interest, although you can have the payments deferred until after graduation.

    Parent PLUS / Grad PLUS Loans
    Creditworthy parents of dependent undergraduate students and graduate/professional students can apply for this loan, which is not based on need.
