The LIBOR index, adjusted quarterly, is equal to the average of the one-month LIBOR rates as published in the “Money Rates” section of the Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each of the three (3) calendar months immediately preceding each quarterly adjustment date. The LIBOR index is currently 2.50%. Rates effective as of 4/1/19. Please call the Student Loan Center or visit pnconcampus.com for the most up-to-date rate information.

2 Interest will accumulate while the student is enrolled in school if payments are deferred. If not paid, the accumulated interest will be added to the principal at repayment.

3Interest rate discount: An interest rate reduction of 0.50% is available for automated payments once the borrower is no longer attending school on at least a half-time basis. The borrower must be making scheduled payments through loan servicer American Education Services (AES) that include both principal and interest from a checking or savings account. Interest only payments do not qualify for the 0.50% interest rate discount. The discount may be suspended during periods of forbearance. If the borrower voluntarily ceases automatic payments, the interest rate reduction will return to the non-discounted rate. The interest rate benefit can be regained if the borrower re-enrolls in automatic payments. The customer is disqualified from the 0.50% interest rate reduction program after three returned or insufficient payments within a twelve month period.

A request to release a cosigner requires that, as of the date of the request, the borrower has made at least 48 consecutive timely payments of principal and interest with no periods of forbearance or deferment within the 48 month time frame. “Timely payment” means each payment is made no later than the 15th day after the scheduled due date of the payment. "Consecutive payment” means the regularly scheduled monthly payment must be made for 48 months without interruption. To qualify for a cosigner release, the borrower must submit a request, meet the consecutive, timely payment requirements, provide proof of income and pass a credit check.

They may use this PIRN to compare loan terms to find the loan that best fits their needs. If the loan application is denied, applicant(s) will be notified regarding the reasons for denial. The PIRN is available upon request.

Applicants can view their application status by logging into their online account. A timeline shows the applicant(s) a list of key steps prior to loan disbursement.

FINANCIAL LITERACY & CRITICAL SUPPORT FOR THE FUTURE

B U I L D I N G A S T R O N G F O U N D A T I O N

At PNC, we believe that no student should leave school and go out into the world without a fundamental grasp of personal finance.

We offer students access to a range of financial tools because we feel strongly that understanding debt management and default prevention is good for borrowers, schools and lenders.

PNC also offers multimedia tutorials on a variety of financial topics at pnconcampus.com, where students will find resources and calculators along with two curriculum paths with multiple courses: “Paying for College” (a holistic understanding of the cost of college and applying for aid) and “Financial Literacy” (reducing overall college debt by making smart financial choices while in college). Students can either complete courses sequentially or view only those of interest. Registering with the site lets students customize tools and save their progress.

Schools can link directly to the site at pnc.financialliteracy101.org.

The primary goals of our financial literacy resources are:

° Promoting responsible borrowing, including federal borrowing first.

° Educating students on debt management and financial planning through interactive financial literacy tools.

Awareness is the first step in helping students. By promoting the use of these tools together, we can help them succeed.

D E F A U L T P R E V E N T I O N

To aid the borrower entering repayment, AES provides an early-awareness campaign 30–45 days prior to the loan entering repayment.

° Borrowers and cosigners are advised on their repayment obligations to increase financial awareness.

° Representatives offer solutions for borrowers who may be unable to make payments as scheduled, including Modified Graduated Repayment Schedule (MGRS) options.

° Forbearance requests are carefully evaluated and may be instituted as appropriate.

1 Refinancing at a longer repayment term may lower the borrower’s monthly student loan payments, but may also increase the total interest paid over the life of the loan. Refinancing at a shorter repayment term may increase the borrower’s monthly student loan payments, but may lower the total interest paid over the life of the loan. For example, if the borrower has a 15-year loan that matures in 10 years and the borrower refinances for another 15 years at a lower rate, the borrower’s payments will be lower, but the borrower will pay interest for an additional 5 years. The borrower should contact us to discuss the option that best meets the borrower’s needs.

Certain Federal Benefits Will Be Lost or Not Available: By refinancing federal loans through this PNC Education Refinance Loan, the borrower will lose or not be able to select other payment plans available to federal student loan borrowers, such as income-contingent repayment or income-based repayment. In addition, federal student loans offer deferment, forbearance and loan forgiveness options that may not be available under a PNC Education Refinance Loan. The borrower should compare current benefits with this program to ensure any loss of existing benefits is fully understood.

2 Interest rate discount: During repayment, an interest rate reduction of 0.50% is available for automated payments. The borrower must be making scheduled payments through loan servicer American Education Services (AES) that include both principal and interest from a checking or savings account. If the borrower voluntarily ceases automatic payments, the interest rate reduction will return to the non-discounted rate. The interest rate benefit can be regained if the borrower re-enrolls in automatic payments. The customer is disqualified from the 0.50% interest rate reduction program after three returned or insufficient payments within a twelve month period.

3 Interest rate discount: An interest rate reduction of 0.50% is available for automated payments once the borrower is no longer attending school on at least a half-time basis. The borrower must be making scheduled payments through loan servicer American Education Services (AES) that include both principal and interest from a checking or savings account. Interest only payments do not qualify for the 0.50% interest rate discount. The discount may be suspended during periods of forbearance. If the borrower voluntarily ceases automatic payments, the interest rate reduction will return to the non-discounted rate. The interest rate benefit can be regained if the borrower re-enrolls in automatic payments. The customer is disqualified from the 0.50% interest rate reduction program after three returned or insufficient payments within a twelve month period.

4 Qualifying federal and private loans must have been used only for qualified higher education expenses at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school.
