1 The 0.25% interest rate reduction is available to borrowers who arrange with the loan servicer to automatically deduct monthly payments from their bank account. The rate reduction will begin when automatic principal and interest loan payments start, and will remain in effect as long as automatic payments continue without interruption. The reduced interest rate will return to contract rate if automatic payments are cancelled, rejected or returned for any reason.
2 Rates and fees may vary depending on your credit score and your co-signer’s credit score (if applicable). And for undergraduate borrowers of the Charter One Loan Programs, the repayment option selected will also determine the actual rates and fees.
