Our take
Earnest offers student loan refinancing and personal loan products. It looks at thousands of data points such as education, saving patterns, investments, and career trajectory to issue a unique credit score, which can prove a lifeline for students who may otherwise struggle to qualify for loan refinancing.
For the portion of student debtors with low credit scores, Earnest is one of a few scant options. Borrowers can choose their own loan terms to fund up to the full cost of their education, and there are no origination, application, or late fees.
Earnest has grown from distributing $8M loans in its first year of business to an impressive total $18.5 billion in student loans refinanced, and has served upwards of 200,000 people. With student loans representing such a huge sector of lending, there should be plenty of room for Earnest to continue expanding in the future.
