Student loans can be facilitated by the U.S. Department of Education or by private institutions. These loans, accessible to students or their parents, are a borrowed sum that must be repaid with interest.
Federal loans come with publicly disclosed terms set by the government. Private loans, however, are not federally insured and can have fluctuating approval prerequisites and their own set of terms. It’s crucial to compare these aspects when considering your financial aid options.
The U.S. Department of Education offers federal loans to eligible students or their parents to help cover their educational costs.
As a rule, private loan borrowers must be U.S. citizens, nationals, or permanent residents with sound creditworthiness. International students can also apply, provided they have a creditworthy U.S. co-signer and the required U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service documentation.
For students with no credit or poor credit history, applying with a creditworthy co-borrower may open up the possibility of securing a loan. Please note that most lenders require a qualified co-borrower before approving the loan.
Remember that interest rates and repayment terms can vary among private lenders. While Eagle Gate College doesn’t recommend specific private lenders, students are free to borrow from any lender. Before choosing, we encourage you to research and review all lender terms and conditions thoroughly.
Finally, verify with your chosen lender if Eagle Gate College is recognized as an eligible institution. If approved, we are happy to certify your loan with your lender.
Scholarships, like grants, provide financial aid that doesn’t require repayment. They are allocated based on various factors, such as academic achievement, talent in extracurricular activities, financial necessity, or alumni standing.
To support your academic journey and help you achieve your career goals, Eagle Gate College offers an array of institutional scholarships and grants to students who fulfill the qualifying conditions. Students are also encouraged to apply for outside scholarships to help finance their education.
Our Federal Work-Study (FWS) program can help you earn additional financial aid to cover your educational expenses. FWS participants can secure paid positions at the college or with non-profit agencies or for-profit businesses, earning at least the current minimum hourly wage.
Although certain restrictions apply, Eagle Gate is committed to assisting eligible students in job placement. An advantage of the FWS program is that your earnings won’t count towards the following year’s expected family contribution.
Funds are limited and dispensed annually on July 1st, with awards provided on a first-come, first-served basis. The awards can range from $200 to $4500 per academic year.
To be considered for the FWS program, students must complete a FAFSA application, exhibit financial need, and express interest in part-time work. Please consult your financial aid representative if you are interested in the program. Your resume and employment application will be required for consideration, subject to fund availability and your eligibility.

Does the FAFSA application determine loans and grants?
Yes. The information provided on your FAFSA application is used to determine your Estimated Family Contribution (EFC). The EFC is an index number used to determine your eligibility for both federal grants and loans.
If you are awarded student loans, does this mean you have to take the loans?
No. If you are awarded federal grants and loans, you can choose to only accept the grants. If you are only awarded loans, you may accept all, part, or none of the awarded funds. You can even cancel the loan or a portion of it before it’s disbursed. Full details will be provided in your promissory note.
