NOT FOR CONSUMER OR BORROWER DISTRIBUTION.
1 Interest rates on loans with the Fixed and Deferred Repayment Options are higher than rates on loans with the Interest Repayment Option. Rates and fees shown are available for borrowers attending degree‐granting institutions only. APRs for borrowers attending non‐degree‐granting institutions range from 8.00% to 13.76% with an origination fee of up to 5%. Origination fees mean application or disbursement fees. Interest rates are variable and may increase after consummation. Deferred repayment option is not available for non‐degree‐granting institutions. Unpaid interest will capitalize when loan enters principal and interest repayment.
2 Benefit is available with Smart Option Student Loans that first disburse between 7/1/11 and 10/31/11. Borrowers attending degree‐granting institutions are automatically enrolled in the Tuition Insurance Benefit for 4 months beginning the day of the first loan disbursement and may extend the benefit another 8 months (for a full year of coverage) simply by activating within the 4 months initial coverage period. The complimentary Tuition Insurance Benefit covers up to $2,500 per semester ($5,000 total per policy) of payments of tuition, room and board, books and fees that are lost if the student withdraws from school for a covered medical reason. Additional coverage is available for purchase. If the loan under which the benefit is provided is canceled, the free coverage provided by the Tuition Insurance Benefit will terminate. The Tuition Insurance Benefit is a group insurance policy with College Parents of America offered through Next Generation Insurance Group, LLC, and is provided to students at no charge. Students cannot be enrolled in more than one complimentary Tuition Insurance Benefit at a time. For the sole purpose of fulfilling the complimentary Tuition Insurance Benefit, Sallie Mae will share customer information with unaffiliated insurance services companies, the underwriting insurance company and their technology partners, and College Parents of America.
