Stafford Lender List for First Year Students

(First-time borrowers and current borrowers wishing to change lenders)

You may select one of the following LVC preferred lenders or you may choose another participating lender. No matter which lender you choose, you will be required to complete Stafford Loan Entrance Counseling and a Master Promissory Note (MPN). You may e-sign your MPN using your Federal Personal Identification Number (PIN - this is the same PIN you used to sign your FAFSA). The LVC Financial Aid Office will then certify your Stafford Loan eligibility.

Please click the Apply Now button next to the lender of your choice to begin the process. You will have the opportunity to view and select other participating lenders during completion of the MPN.

Why is LVC recommending the following lenders?

  • Excellent customer service for the borrower and LVC
  • Ease of application process and delivery of loan funds
