Loans can be an important part of a student’s paying-for-college strategy. Georgia State offers educational loans from a variety of sources, including federal, state, private, commercial and institutional. We understand that borrowing for one’s education is an important investment in the future. We encourage our families to borrow wisely and to work with our financial aid counselors to ensure no more debt than is necessary and manageable is taken.

Georgia State University’s Cohort Default Rate (CDR) for federal loans is below the national average and can be found here.
