What is a credit union?

Credit unions are not-for-profit organizations that exist to serve their members rather than maximize corporate profits. Like banks, credit unions provide a variety of financial services, but as member-owned cooperatives, they focus on providing a safe place to save and borrow at reasonable rates while returning income to their members in the form of dividends.

 

Why choose a credit union?

Credit unions operate to serve their members and communities. One way they do that is by promoting thrift and offering competitive rates with a focus on the best interest of the borrower - in this case students. When you choose your credit union to pay for college, you'll benefit from great rates, low fees, convenient repayment terms, and most importantly, a life-long relationship with a lender you can trust.

Not familiar with credit unions? Credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives. We offer many of the same products and services as banks - including savings and checking accounts, loans, ATMs and online banking - but there are also key differences that can save you money. Credit unions are owned and controlled by our members, not profit-driven shareholders. That means the average credit union can offer better rates and lower fees than many other financial institutions!

 

Who is Credit Union Student Choice?

A group of leading credit unions saw a need in the marketplace for a better private student loan - one that was actually in the student’s best interest and honored the credit union philosophy of putting members first.
