Whether you're seeking a federal loan or have maxed out of your federal loan eligiblity and need a private loan, we can help you ease the task of navigating the application process. Our loan instructions will guide you through the process -- from upfront information necessary to complete the application, to expectations about loan approval time and borrower obligations.

Federal Loans
Whenever possible, SunTrust suggests you allow the government to help you find the money necessary for education. We recommend loans provided through the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) including Stafford, and Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS).

Private Loans
If scholarships, grants and federal loans don't cover all your education costs, look into our SunTrust private loan options to supplement your financial aid package.
