STUDENTCHOICE™ Financial Package

The STUDENTCHOICE Package is designed for post-secondary students and includes all your loan and banking needs.

Who Can Qualify?

The STUDENTCHOICE Package is available for anyone under 26 years of age (at the time of application) enrolling in a recognized college, university or technical school and is taking a minimum 60% full-time course load.

What's Included?

Everything is included at no cost to you! You can select any or all of the products that suit you best, like an interest-bearing account, overdraft protection*, a MemberCard© debit card, a student credit card, internet banking and your loan.

Student Loans

The STUDENTCHOICE Package has a maximum loan amount of $10,000 per year to a maximum of $40,000*. We'll work with you to determine just how much you need to get you through school. Then, we'll help you design a plan that will ensure that your money will last you the entire school year - so you can eat just as well during the last month of school as you will in the first.

*On approved credit.

Repayment Terms

Once you complete your education or cease full-time enrollment, you have a minimum six month grace period where you still only have to pay the interest on the amount borrowed. After the grace period ends, your loan payments can be amortized over a maximum of 15 years with no pre-payment penalties.
