    Eligibility for Students Loans in Illinois

    Student borrowers with limited or no credit history can still be matched with lenders. Having any income — from part-time work, scholarships, or other sources — strengthens your application.

    Requirements vary by lender, but most lending partners serving Illinois look for:

    • Be at least 18 years old and a resident of Illinois or Illinois
    • Have an active bank account (for direct deposit)
    • Have a permanent address in the United States
    • Full-time and part-time students are eligible to apply
    • Part-time or seasonal employment income is accepted
    • Limited credit history is common for students — lenders assess income and banking activity

    Important: Student loans have repayment obligations that begin after your loan agreement. Borrow only what you need and have a clear repayment plan.
