Loans are subject to credit approval. Certain restrictions and conditions apply. NOTE: Applying with a creditworthy cosigner who is the age of majority in their state is required for 17-year old applicants and when the applicant is not the age of majority in the state they reside.

The PNC Solution Student Loan is a private loan. Federal loans have features and benefits such as income-driven repayment plans, deferment, forbearance and loan forgiveness options that may not be available under a private loan. You are encouraged to explore all scholarship, grant and federal borrowing options before applying for a private loan.

Application Process: When you are applying for a PNC Solution Student Loan, you will be transferred to the website of one of our service providers. A list of information required to complete your application will be provided during the application process. For more information, access the PNC Student Lending Application Process page.

The hours to apply by phone are Monday through Friday: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET
Automated Payment Discount: During repayment, an interest rate discount of 0.50% is available for automated payments. Payments must be made from a checking or savings account. Automated payment is established through the loan servicer American Education Services (AES). Advertised rates include the 0.50% automated payment interest rate discount. The rate discount will be applied at the time automated payment is established. If automated payment is not established, the available rates will be 0.50% higher than the advertised rates. If automated payment is established and discontinued at any time during repayment, including to enter a deferment or forbearance period, the borrower will no longer receive an automated payment discount and the rate will increase by 0.50%.
Annual Percentage Rates (APRs): APRs include a 0.50% interest rate discount for automated payments. Rates are as of 6/18/2025 and subject to change at anytime.

Fixed Annual Percentage Rates (APRs): Fixed rates are based on the creditworthiness of the borrower and cosigner, if any.

Variable Annual Percentage Rates (APRs): Variable rates are based on the Prime Rate index plus a margin depending on the creditworthiness of the borrower and cosigner, if any. The Prime index, adjusted monthly, is equal to the Prime Rate as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal ‘(Eastern Edition)’ on the first business day of the immediately preceding calendar month. The Prime index is currently 7.50%. If the index increases or decreases, your rate will increase or decrease accordingly. The rate will not exceed 18%.

APRs shown are for the immediate repayment option. Interest-only and fully deferred repayment options while in school are also available. The lowest rates for those repayment options may be higher than the lowest rates for immediate repayment.

The lowest APR is available to well-qualified applicants. Your actual APR will be based on your credit qualifications, loan program, interest rate option, repayment term, repayment option and whether you elect the automated payment feature.

Loan Payment Examples: The monthly payment per $10,000 borrowed at a fixed-rate range of 8.39% APR to 13.89% APR for 10 years means you would make 120 payments that may range from $123.82 to $155.49. The monthly payment per $10,000 borrowed at a variable-rate range of 8.89% to 14.39% APR for 10 years means you would make 120 payments that may range from $126.54 to $158.55. For the variable-rate loan, monthly payment may increase or decrease if the interest rate increases or decreases. Estimated loan payment examples assume 30 days to first payment and are for the immediate repayment option. Payments vary for other rates, loan amounts and repayment terms.

For additional rate and loan cost information view loan Application and Solicitation Disclosures.
Repayment Options: Three repayment options are available - Immediate repayment of principal & interest, interest-only payments while in school and full deferment of principal & interest until six months after graduating or ceasing to be enrolled at least half-time in school. Interest will continue to accrue during periods of deferment. You will receive quarterly interest statements during this deferment period. Paying the interest as it accrues each quarter will save you money over the repayment term of the loan because any accrued interest that you do not pay will be added to the principal balance at the end of the deferment period.
PNC Solution Student Loan Limits: Loan limits may go up to the school-certified cost of attendance minus financial aid for well-qualified applicants. Undergraduate/Undergraduate Health & Medical Professions limits ranging from $50,000-$75,000 and Graduate/Graduate Health & Medical Professions/Accelerated Undergraduate Health and Medical Professions limits ranging from $65,000-$105,000 may apply based on credit criteria. Loan limits are for an academic school year. Minimum Loan Amount: $1,000. Maximum Aggregate Educational Debt (including federal and private student loans): Up to $225,000. Well-qualified graduate students up to $350,000.
Cosigner Release: A request to release a cosigner requires that, as of the date of the request, the borrower has made at least forty-eight (48) consecutive and timely payments (or fewer, if required by applicable state law) of principal and interest with no periods of forbearance or deferment within that 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 minimum monthly payment must be made for the most recent required number of months straight without any interruption. To qualify for a cosigner release, the borrower must submit a request, meet the consecutive and timely payment requirements, provide proof of income, and pass a credit check.
Scholarship: No purchase necessary to win. Void where prohibited or restricted by law. A purchase or transaction does not increase your chances of winning. Entries will be accepted at pnc.com/scholarship. The Scholarship is open to students enrolled at least half-time in a PNC Solution Loan®-eligible college or university who are 18 years of age or older (or the age of majority in their state) at time of the drawing. To enter, you must create an account, meet the eligibility requirements, and opt in to the drawing and agree to the Official Rules. Once you have created the account and have opted into the Scholarship, you will be eligible for the subsequent two drawings that take place within 12 months of registration. Employees of Bonterra Tech LLC and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., their affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising and promotion agencies, as well as such employees’ immediate family members (or persons living in the same household), are not eligible. The Scholarship is governed by the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Six (6) $10,000 college scholarships will be awarded twice each calendar year. Odds of winning will depend on the number of eligible entries received. On or about June 1 and December 1, winners will be drawn at random from all entries submitted. Winners will be contacted by email and/or telephone. Taxes are responsibility of winner. Prizes are not transferable. No substitution of prizes permitted. Scholarship winners will be required to execute and return a Verification of Eligibility and Release of Liability. See official Scholarship rules at pnc.com/scholarship.
