Who can I contact if I have questions?
Does this replace Ƶ’s monthly tuition plan?
No. Climb is an additional option. You can choose between pay-per-course, Ƶ’s monthly tuition plan, or Climb financing. The difference is that Climb lets you spread payments out over a longer period of time—even after graduation—while Ƶ’s monthly tuition plan requires payment while you’re enrolled.
Is Climb federal financial aid (Title IV)?
No. Climb is a private student loan option, not federal aid. That means no FAFSA paperwork, no complex government forms—just a fast, straightforward application.
What if I don’t get approved the first time?
If you aren’t approved right away, you can re-apply with a co-borrower. Many students increase their chances of approval by applying with someone who has a stronger credit profile.
Can I pay off my loan early?
Yes. Climb loans have no prepayment penalties. You can pay in full or make extra payments anytime.
When do I have to start paying?
Climb offers flexible repayment options, including a “MinPay” plan that allows you to make small payments while enrolled, with full repayment starting after graduation.
