Welcome! Texas Lutheran University participates in the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP). Through FFELP, students may apply for the Federal Stafford Loan and parents may apply for the PLUS loan. Alternative loans are also available to students who need additional funds.

Lender List Rationale

While TLU provides a list of lenders that students and parents may choose from, we do not prefer one lender over another nor are students or parents required to borrow through the lenders that appear on our list. These lenders are on our list because they have either indicated a willingness to loan to TLU students and parents by responding to our Request for Information (RFI) or students/parents have chosen to borrow through the lender in the past.

Students and parents may choose one of the lenders on the list OR choose a lender of their own.

PLEASE NOTE: You are NOT required to use any of the lenders on this list. TLU will process loans through the lender of your choice.

If choosing a lender of their own, students and parents are responsible for researching the lender’s loan programs and benefits and providing the following information about the lender to TLU: lender name, lender code, servicer name, lender contact and the contact’s information.

Our list will be updated periodically as lender participation in the programs change or as needed based on lender’s willingness to loan to TLU’s students and their parents. TLU reserves the right to not include a lender on the list even if they respond to the RFI, if we feel it would not be in the best interest of our students to use the lender.
