Student Loan Programs

As the continuing educational branch of the University, students may apply for private credit-based alternative student loans. There is no need to complete a FAFSA since you are not applying for federal financial aid. UC Irvine Extension is an approved training institution for the following private credit-based alternative student loans to help students enrolled through UCI Extension cover the cost of attending one of our programs. We offer the following student loan options:

• Citibank CitiAssist® Student Loan Program
• Wells Fargo Education Connection® Loan

Students may apply for specific course-related expenditures required to attend a particular program. Credit decisions to fund the loan are made entirely by the lending institution. Interest rates, fees, and repayment schedules vary from one lender to another and students are encouraged to compare information between the lending institutions. Students may also contact their own bank as a possibility of funding their continuing education studies. To receive disbursement of the approved loan, students must enroll or be enrolled by the disbursement date and remain in good academic standing.
