ELFI Program from SouthEast Bank – Loan Interest Rates & Fees

Your Starting Interest Rate (upon approval)

The interest rate you pay will be determined after you apply. It will be based upon your credit history, the loan term you select, and other factors. If approved, we will notify you of the rate you qualify for.

Your Interest Rate during the life of a loan: Fixed-Rate Loans

Your rate is fixed and will depend on the loan term that you select. This means that your interest rate will never change during the life of your loan.

Your Interest Rate during the life of the loan: Variable-Rate Loans*

Your rate is variable. This means that your rate could move lower or higher than the rates on your disclosure. Although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 18% for the 5-year, 7-year, 10-year, or 15-year term. Your loan amount will not exceed the cost of attendance less financial aid as certified by your school. For variable rate loans applied for after 7:00 PM EST on January 7, 2022, the variable interest rate will be based on a publicly available index, the Prime Rate of Interest as published in the Money Market Section of the Wall Street Journal. These variable rates will be calculated and set each month by adding a margin between -2.50% to 5.72% to the Prime Rate. If you have an existing variable rate loan that uses the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as the benchmark rate index, your loan will continue to use the LIBOR as the benchmark rate index. These rates will be calculated by adding a margin between 1.05% to 11.39% to the 3-month LIBOR. Your rate will not increase more than once quarterly. ELFI will notify borrowers with existing variable rate loans originated prior to 7:00 PM EST on January 7, 2022, of the expected change from LIBOR to the Prime Rate in the future.

• Loan Fees & Example
• Application Fee: $0
• Origination Fee: 0%
• Loan Guarantee Fee: 0%
• Prepayment Fee: 0%
• Late Charge: the lesser of 5% of the past due amount or $50
• Returned Check or Insufficient Funds Charge: $30 For example, a 10-year loan with a fixed rate of 7% would have 120 payments of $11.61 per $1,000 borrowed. Rates are subject to change.

Federal Loan Alternatives and Disclosure Regarding Benefits

You may qualify for federal education loans. For additional information, contact your school’s financial aid office or the Department of Education at: www.studentloans.gov & studentaid.ed.gov/sa

Think carefully before taking out a loan with ELFI. You are encouraged to start with grants, scholarships, savings, and federal student loans before utilizing private student loans. Federal student loans offer deferment and forbearance options that may not be available to you if you take out a loan with ELFI.

Private education loans are not eligible to be included in a Federal Direct Consolidation Loan.

See https://studentaid.gov/understand-aid/types/loans/federal-vs-private for a description of the benefits and repayment options available to federal student loan borrowers.

Next Steps

1. Find out about other options. The Federal Direct Consolidation Loan may have student loan benefits and terms not detailed on this form. Visit the Department of Education’s website at www.StudentLoans.gov for more information about other consolidation loans. 2. To apply for this loan, complete the application. If you are approved for this loan, the loan terms will be available for 30 days (terms will not change during this period, except as permitted by law).

Reference Notes

Interest Rate: Your interest rate will depend on the loan term that you select. Interest rates are valid within the preceding 30 days.

Repayment Options

Immediate: The borrower starts repaying the loan while still in school. The monthly payment will cover the monthly interest and some of the principal borrowed. This option will have the highest monthly payments while in school, but will save the borrower the most money throughout the life of the loan.

Fixed: The borrower pays a fixed monthly payment of $25.00 while in school and grace period. This amount will first be applied to interest, and any leftover will be applied to the principal. Any unpaid interest will be added to the principal balance of the loan upon the end of the borrowers grace period.

Interest Only: The borrower makes monthly payments to cover the monthly interest while the borrower is in school and grace period. These payments will not include any payment toward the principal of the loan. The principal balance will remain unchanged unless the borrower pays extra.

Deferred: The borrower makes no monthly payments while in school and grace period. The loan will accrue interest while the borrower is in school and grace period. Upon the end of the grace period, the accrued interest will be added to the principal amount of the loan. Depending on the repayment option you select, your loan may defer payment of principal and/or interest while you are enrolled at least half-time at a post-secondary educational institution. If your loan includes a deferment period, interest will accrue from the disbursement of the loan through the end of the deferment period. Any accrued but unpaid interest during that time will be added to the loan’s principal balance. The lender does not offer payment deferral options once your full payments of principal and interest begin. The lender may in its sole discretion agree to modify the loan or extend other repayment assistance to you on request.

Electronic Payment Requirement

You agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by means of an electronic monthly deduction or transfer from a savings or checking account.
