The Resource Loan for Undergraduates

The PNC Bank Resource Loan for Undergraduates may be your answer to meeting the rising costs of a college education. It's quick, easy and affordable!

Program Features

  • The variable interest rate is based upon the LIBOR index plus a margin ranging from 2.80% to 5.45% depending upon creditworthiness, and is adjusted quarterly
  • Loan origination fees are based on the repayment option selected, the creditworthiness of the student borrower and the co-signer (if any), and range from 0% to 9.50% of the total loan amount (requested loan amount plus the origination fee)
  • Use the funds for any education-related expense — even to pay off past due balances!
  • No application deadlines; apply anytime
  • Receive a preliminary decision for a loan within minutes of applying online or by phone
  • Defer payments until six months after you graduate or leave school*
  • No prepayment penalties or repayment fees
  • Borrow up to the cost of your education, less any financial aid received
  • Three different repayment options are available, including deferred payments until you graduate or you leave school
  • Interest may be tax deductible (consult your tax advisor)
  • Funds are sent directly to the school and can be disbursed within two business days of final approval
  • A 0.25% interest rate reduction is available if you elect to have your monthly payments automatically deducted from your bank account*
  • A co-signer release option is available to borrowers after the initial 48 consecutive on-time monthly payments and subject to credit approval*

* Interest will continue to accrue during periods of deferment. The interest rate reduction benefit is lost if automatic payment deduction is discontinued. To release a co-signer from the loan after 48 consecutive payments, the borrower must request a co-signer release and pass a credit check.

Eligibility

  • Enrolled at least half-time as determined by your school

  • Able to meet the credit guidelines listed below
    Please note: A co-signer is typically required for undergraduate students; a co-signer is required for 17-year-old students

  • You or your co-signer, if any, are credit-worthy
  • You or your co-signer, if any, have a satisfactory credit history, residence and employment history of at least two years
