While the University participates in Federal educational loan programs, we realize that unforeseen financial circumstances occur that may temporarily disrupt students’ Federal educational benefits.  For this reason, Amberton University has agreement(s) with loan providers who offer private loans for educational expenses.  These loans are not federally-funded and are designed to assist approved students with payment of tuition, fees, and textbooks.  They are not designed to provide income for day-to-day living expenses normally covered by the working adult’s employment income.  For more information on loan programs currently available, see the provider(s) listed below:
