Ascent is built around one guiding principle: Student loans should expand possibilities, not limit them. That’s why Ascent created a private student loan program that gives students more opportunities to qualify for a loan, with or without a cosigner. Ascent encourages transparency and financial wellness by incorporating financial education into the application process, preserving the notion that an education is an investment where students and families should understand the return on their investment relative to the cost. Ascent offers benefits (such as 1% cash back, scholarships, a Refer a Friend Program, a Rewards Program, and more) as well as resources that set students and families up for financial success.
Ascent Funding (ascentfunding.com) has 579 customer reviews on The Fair Hearing, with an average rating of 4.6 out of 5.

Hi Elizabeth, your review is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
When getting this personal student loan, we did not know that it had to go through the school for them to approve it and we were limited. We considered this as a personal loan used for a student. Basically this Loan will help him get by for 1 to 2 months and then we’re back in the same boat again of him needing money. Thankfully, he has been able to get a job now that other students are leaving the area.
