Additional Information & Resources

Co-Signer Requirements

The PA Forward Student Loan Program does not require you to have a co-signer unless you have not met the age of majority based on the law of your state of residence or you do not meet the minimum credit requirements; however, you may benefit from a creditworthy co-signer. Having a co-signer may increase your chances that the loan will be approved and, perhaps, may get you a better interest rate.

Loan Eligibility
  • PA Forward was designed for PA residents attending an approved school in or out of state, and residents of approved states¹ attending a PA school regardless of enrollment status, including those enrolled less than half-time.²
  • All borrowers must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States.
  • For parent loans, the dependent undergraduate student must be enrolled at least half-time in a degree, certificate, or diploma-granting program. Parents or guardians must meet the minimum credit qualifications.
  • To be eligible for a refinance loan, borrowers must currently be in repayment.
