Immediate credit decisions online
1 A repayment finance charge may apply based on your or your cosigner's credit history.
2 The 0.25% rate reduction is available to borrowers who arrange with their servicer to automatically deduct monthly payments from their personal bank account. Savings programs are effective for all loans disbursed on or after October 13, 2006.
3 LIBOR stands for London Interbank Offered Rate. The one-month LIBOR is the Current Index, as published in the "Money Rates" section of the Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). Your variable interest rate and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) may be higher depending upon your credit history and will increase or decrease if the one-month LIBOR index changes. Your variable interest rate is calculated by adding the current one-month LIBOR index (captured on the 25th day of each month, or the next business day thereafter, of the month immediately preceding such calendar month and rounded up to the nearest 1/8th of one percent) to your margin. The current one-month LIBOR index was 3.25% on 11/1/08. This APR example assumes a $10,000 undergraduate, cosigned, loan disbursed over two transactions with a deferment period of 45 months upon initial disbursement and a six month grace period upon graduation, a 25 year repayment term with no repayment finance charge, and a 2.50% margin. Margins can range from 2% to 8% (depending whether you are an undergraduate or graduate, if the loan is co-signed and upon your or your cosigner's credit history) and repayment finance charges can range from 0% to 5.5% (depending upon your or your cosigner's credit history).
4 The cosigner can be released from liability after the first 48 initial, consecutive principal and interest payments are made on time. Borrowers must meet credit guidelines at the time the cosigner release is requested.

Interest rate: variable, based on Prime

Wells Fargo Student Graduation BenefitSM Program interest rate reduction of 0.50% at repayment upon verification of graduation. Unlike other repayment rewards, the Wells Fargo Student Graduation Benefit program is not affected by a late payment or if you return to school. Students keep the Wells Fargo Student Graduation Benefit Program reward as long as they do not consolidate their loans (effective for loans disbursed on or after July 1, 2008).
0.25% interest rate reduction at repayment when Wells Fargo automatically withdraws payments from a personal checking or savings account - discount is removed if automatic payments are cancelled (effective for loans guaranteed on or after July 1, 2008).

No origination, disbursement or repayment fees
