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.

I thinknhow quick the process was, I still think however that were still not giving kids a really good start with the interest rates that were giving these kids and making tons of money off them!

Hello Keith, we appreciate you taking the time to write a review. Thank you!
It was approved very fast with 0% interest. Based on my religious beliefs I can't take interest based loan. It really helps me pay my rent while I focus on my studies.
