We launched the PNC Student Lending Scholarship Sweepstakes program in 2015 to further support students by giving them a chance to win $2,000 to spend on their education expenses. We award a total of $24,000 annually to eligible undergraduate students who have entered the sweepstakes through their Financial Literacy account.
We have loans and refinancing options for you whether you are seeking to bridge the financial aid gap while in school or simplify your college debt repayment by refinancing. [2]
