How We Choose Lenders
The Missouri S&T Student Financial Assistance office has established a preferred lender list to assist students and families in their search for private student loan options. The lenders on the list were evaluated and selected based on prior student usage as well as quality of customer service and favorable loan features including but not limited to, interest rates, fees, eligibility criteria and benefits.
Our Private Loan Code of Conduct
Missouri S&T adheres to a Code of Conduct for Student Loans that prohibits inducements by private lenders. Students are not required to select a lender from the preferred lender list and may choose any lender and loan product that best fits the student's needs. The lenders on the list are unaffiliated.
FASTChoice
FASTChoice is an online loan comparison solution, customized for S&T, to help students make informed educational loan choices. FASTChoice is not a lender, and the site is an independent, web-based, student loan comparison tool. You can apply online directly from the website. Please remember that you can choose any lender even if they are not on the FASTChoice website.
