First Capital partners with other credit unions across the country to offer the Credit Union Student Choice Loan Program. This student loan partnership allows First Capital to offer an affordable solution and a way to fill the gap that federal aid doesn't cover. This program could help thousands of families save money with low interest rates and no origination fees.
As not-for-profit lenders, credit unions have a distinct advantage over other lenders because we are willing to cooperate and pool our resources in order to offer students and parents an alternative or better way to pay for college. You'll get significant cost-savings by choosing First Capital's student loan over other lenders.
