A Credit Union Accomplishment

Epitomizing the collaborative spirit of the credit union movement, Credit Union Student Choice has accomplished what no single credit union program could. With cooperation and a keen focus on the future, the CUSO developed a business model that gives credit unions, with just a small capital investment, the ability to offer private student loans that deliver true member value with minimal risk. The key to the CUSO is the unique business model that relied on the leadership of several of nation's leading credit unions and CUSOs to help bring together partners that provide expertise in all areas of student lending. These providers are much more than just contractors. They are investors in a new model that will help position credit unions as leaders in 21st century education financing.
