No cosigner
required
Unlike most private student lenders, Edly doesn’t require student loan borrowers to have a cosigner. Borrowers without a cosigner are more than 3x more likely to get approved* for a student loan with Edly than with other private student loan providers and loan programs.
Income-based payments, designed to be affordable
College costs continue to rise, and so do students’ financial needs. With Edly, repayment amounts are affordable and will continuously adjust to your post-graduation income. That way, you’ll always know what to expect. No student loan payment surprises here!
