Lender List Rationale

San Joaquin College of Law carefully reviews lenders’ policies and products regularly to find the best rates and service among student loan lenders for our students. To assist students in this decision, the Financial Aid Office compiled a list of lenders that provide top benefits in the education lending field. We have found each of these lenders to provide prompt reconciliation of loan issues. They also provide fast electronic payment of loan funds directly to SJCL, do not charge fees and offer a variety of savings programs during loan repayment.

Please note that you are not required to use one of these lenders. The Financial Aid Office will process your loan with any lender you choose.

How was this list developed?

Recently there has been a great deal of discussion regarding how lenders are chosen by financial aid offices. SJCL Financial Aid Office is committed to choosing lenders who provide good service and benefits to our students. We surveyed lenders for this year and asked them to provide information regarding their services via a Request for Information (RFI).

SJCL continues to provide students with a Preferred Lender List because we believe that it is helpful to our students who often request guidance in the selection of a lender. This interactive Preferred Lender List is intended as a guide only. The Financial Aid Office will process a loan from any lender selected by a student.

Please feel free to contact the Financial Aid Office if you have any questions about the process of the lenders selected.
