Company Summary
Student loan interest rates often exceed 7% or higher. We propose building a lending platform, similar to Prosper.com or LendingClub.com, to connect willing alumnus, who have a keen interest in the success of the future alumnus of their school, with current students and new graduates. This platform would offer these students and graduates a greater chance to succeed by helping them lower their student loan fees.
