Preferred Lender Statement
The Financial Aid & Veterans Affairs Office at VWCC has selected a diverse list of lenders that offer the highest level of service and borrower benefits for our students. We base our decision on who makes this list on a number of considerations which include: Ease of processing, borrower benefits, customer service and whether or not the lender sells its loans. Students have the right to choose any lender that participates in the Federal Stafford Loan program and we are required to accommodate the student if he/she chooses a lender not on our list. However, we feel that a preferred list is a helpful tool for students because the Financial Aid & Veterans Affairs Office has investigated and determined that its lenders are top-notch and will service our students with excellence during all stages of the student loan process.
If you decide that you would like to select a lender that is not listed above, please log off of this site and visit the Financial Aid Office to complete the paper loan application process.
