Suitable For?
Credible student loan refinancing may be suitable for borrowers who want to compare rates from multiple lenders and pay lower interest rates than on their current loans. Some borrowers with federally held loans may choose not to refinance in order to remain eligible for benefits applicable to federally held loans.
Loan Features
Credible offers loans with the following features:
- Fixed-rate APRs from 2.55% (with autopay)*
- Variable-rate APRs from 2.39% (with autopay)*
- Loans with minimum size of $7,500 and up, depending on lender and state
The Application Process
You can fill out an application on the Credible website in around two minutes. Credible shows you rates, without sharing your information directly with lenders or affecting your credit score.
You can then choose the plan you want, and get actual rates based on your credit profile, not estimates.
After you provide additional details about yourself and your loan, you can get your final offer in as little as 1 business day.
