Learn About a New Student Loan Product for Community Banks

Make your plans now to join VACB and the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) to learn about a new student loan option available to VACB member banks.

Keystone Student Loans offers a referral partner program designed for Community Banks to meet the needs of your customers to provide private student loans and a refinance program. As college tuition costs continue to rise, more families need private education loans to help fund the gap between financial aid and college expenses. The Keystone Student Loan Referral Program allows you to serve the student loan needs of your customers while avoiding all loan administration and costs associated with origination, disbursement and servicing.  The Keystone Student Loan Program offers undergraduate, graduate, parent and refinance loans with competitive fixed interest rates.
