If you're considering graduate school, chances are you're considering how to finance it. You have more options than you may think. Sallie Mae offers loan programs to help graduate students fund their higher education.

If you qualify, federal loans are often the cheapest way to borrow. Federal loans include the Stafford, Graduate PLUS and Perkins Loans. These loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Contact your financial aid office to learn more about applying for these loan programs.

Thanks to a relationship between the University of California and Sallie Mae, you may qualify for a low-cost private loan to help bridge the funding gap between your federal Stafford loans, other financial aid and education expenses. This program offers loans with competitive rates and fees for domestic and international students enrolled in graduate business, law, and health professions schools.
