To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.
<sup>2</sup>The 0.25% auto-pay interest rate reduction applies as long as the borrower or cosigner, if applicable, enrolls in auto-pay and authorizes our loan servicer to automatically deduct your monthly payments from a valid bank account via Automated Clearing House ("ACH"). The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%. Advertised rates shown include both interest rate reductions. Rates are valid as of 2/1/2018. Variable rates may increase after consummation.
$5,000 is the minimum requirement to refinance. The maximum loan amount is $250,000 for those with medical, dental, pharmacy or veterinary doctorate degrees, and $150,000 for all other undergraduate or graduate degrees.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.

The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate.

For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans).

The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan.

Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay).

Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

Fixed rates from 3.250% APR to 7.750% APR (with AutoPay). Variable rates from 2.630% APR to 7.695% APR (with AutoPay). Interest rates on variable rate loans are capped at either 8.95% or 9.95% depending on term of loan. See APR examples and terms. Lowest variable rate of 2.630% APR assumes current 1 month LIBOR rate of 1.97% plus 0.91% margin minus 0.25% ACH discount. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. If approved for a loan, the fixed or variable interest rate offered will depend on your creditworthiness, and the term of the loan and other factors, and will be within the ranges of rates listed above. For the SoFi variable rate loan, the 1-month LIBOR index will adjust monthly and the loan payment will be re-amortized and may change monthly. APRs for variable rate loans may increase after origination if the LIBOR index increases.
¹The SoFi 0.25% AutoPay interest rate reduction requires you to agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic monthly deduction from a savings or checking account. The benefit will discontinue and be lost for periods in which you do not pay by automatic deduction from a savings or checking account.
To check the rates and terms you qualify for, SoFi conducts a soft credit inquiry. Unlike hard credit inquiries, soft credit inquiries (or soft credit pulls) do not impact your credit score. Soft credit inquiries allow SoFi to show you what rates and terms SoFi can offer you up front. After seeing your rates, if you choose a product and continue your application, we will request your full credit report from one or more consumer reporting agencies, which is considered a hard credit inquiry. Hard credit inquiries (or hard credit pulls) are required for SoFi to be able to issue you a loan. In addition to requiring your explicit permission, these credit pulls may impact your credit score.
Terms and Conditions Apply. SOFI RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MODIFY OR DISCONTINUE PRODUCTS AND BENEFITS AT ANY TIME WITHOUT NOTICE. To qualify, a borrower must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident in an eligible state and meet SoFi's underwriting requirements. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. To qualify for the lowest rate, you must have a responsible financial history and meet other conditions. If approved, your actual rate will be within the range of rates listed above and will depend on a variety of factors, including term of loan, a responsible financial history, years of experience, income and other factors. Rates and Terms are subject to change at anytime without notice and are subject to state restrictions.

Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.
<sup>2</sup>The 0.25% auto-pay interest rate reduction applies as long as the borrower or cosigner, if applicable, enrolls in auto-pay and authorizes our loan servicer to automatically deduct your monthly payments from a valid bank account via Automated Clearing House ("ACH"). The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%. Advertised rates shown include both interest rate reductions. Rates are valid as of 2/1/2018. Variable rates may increase after consummation.
$5,000 is the minimum requirement to refinance. The maximum loan amount is $250,000 for those with medical, dental, pharmacy or veterinary doctorate degrees, and $150,000 for all other undergraduate or graduate degrees.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.

You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay).

For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR).

Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.
The information provided on this page is updated as of 3/26/2018. Earnest reserves the right to change, pause, or terminate product offerings at any time without notice.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE
Average savings calculated based on single loans refinanced from 9/2013 to 12/2017 where borrowers’ previous rates were disclosed. Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

Disclosure
Fixed rates from 3.250% APR to 7.750% APR (with AutoPay). Variable rates from 2.630% APR to 7.695% APR (with AutoPay). Interest rates on variable rate loans are capped at either 8.95% or 9.95% depending on term of loan. See APR examples and terms. Lowest variable rate of 2.630% APR assumes current 1 month LIBOR rate of 1.97% plus 0.91% margin minus 0.25% ACH discount. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. If approved for a loan, the fixed or variable interest rate offered will depend on your creditworthiness, and the term of the loan and other factors, and will be within the ranges of rates listed above. For the SoFi variable rate loan, the 1-month LIBOR index will adjust monthly and the loan payment will be re-amortized and may change monthly. APRs for variable rate loans may increase after origination if the LIBOR index increases.
¹The SoFi 0.25% AutoPay interest rate reduction requires you to agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic monthly deduction from a savings or checking account. The benefit will discontinue and be lost for periods in which you do not pay by automatic deduction from a savings or checking account.
To check the rates and terms you qualify for, SoFi conducts a soft credit inquiry. Unlike hard credit inquiries, soft credit inquiries (or soft credit pulls) do not impact your credit score. Soft credit inquiries allow SoFi to show you what rates and terms SoFi can offer you up front. After seeing your rates, if you choose a product and continue your application, we will request your full credit report from one or more consumer reporting agencies, which is considered a hard credit inquiry. Hard credit inquiries (or hard credit pulls) are required for SoFi to be able to issue you a loan. In addition to requiring your explicit permission, these credit pulls may impact your credit score.

To qualify, a borrower must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident in an eligible state and meet SoFi's underwriting requirements. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. To qualify for the lowest rate, you must have a responsible financial history and meet other conditions.

<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE
Average savings calculated based on single loans refinanced from 9/2013 to 12/2017 where borrowers’ previous rates were disclosed. Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

Disclosure
To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.
<sup>2</sup>The 0.25% auto-pay interest rate reduction applies as long as the borrower or cosigner, if applicable, enrolls in auto-pay and authorizes our loan servicer to automatically deduct your monthly payments from a valid bank account via Automated Clearing House ("ACH"). The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE
Average savings calculated based on single loans refinanced from 9/2013 to 12/2017 where borrowers’ previous rates were disclosed. Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE

Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.
<sup>2</sup>The 0.25% auto-pay interest rate reduction applies as long as the borrower or cosigner, if applicable, enrolls in auto-pay and authorizes our loan servicer to automatically deduct your monthly payments from a valid bank account via Automated Clearing House ("ACH"). The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%. Advertised rates shown include both interest rate reductions. Rates are valid as of 2/1/2018. Variable rates may increase after consummation.
$5,000 is the minimum requirement to refinance. The maximum loan amount is $250,000 for those with medical, dental, pharmacy or veterinary doctorate degrees, and $150,000 for all other undergraduate or graduate degrees.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE
Average savings calculated based on single loans refinanced from 9/2013 to 12/2017 where borrowers’ previous rates were disclosed. Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE

Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

Fixed rates from 3.250% APR to 7.750% APR (with AutoPay). Variable rates from 2.630% APR to 7.695% APR (with AutoPay). Interest rates on variable rate loans are capped at either 8.95% or 9.95% depending on term of loan. See APR examples and terms. Lowest variable rate of 2.630% APR assumes current 1 month LIBOR rate of 1.97% plus 0.91% margin minus 0.25% ACH discount. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. If approved for a loan, the fixed or variable interest rate offered will depend on your creditworthiness, and the term of the loan and other factors, and will be within the ranges of rates listed above. For the SoFi variable rate loan, the 1-month LIBOR index will adjust monthly and the loan payment will be re-amortized and may change monthly. APRs for variable rate loans may increase after origination if the LIBOR index increases.
¹The SoFi 0.25% AutoPay interest rate reduction requires you to agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic monthly deduction from a savings or checking account.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61.

The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%.

Disclosure
To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.
SAVINGS EXAMPLE
Average savings calculated based on single loans refinanced from 9/2013 to 12/2017 where borrowers’ previous rates were disclosed. Assumes same loan terms for previous and refinanced loans, and payments made to maturity with no prepayments. Actual savings for individual loans vary based on loan balance, interest rates, and other factors.

<sup>1</sup>This informational repayment example uses typical loan terms for a refi borrower who selects the Full Principal & Interest Repayment Option with a 10-year repayment term, has a $40,000 loan and a 5.5% Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"): 120 monthly payments of $434.11 while in the repayment period, for a total amount of payments of $52,092.61. Loans will never have a full principal and interest monthly payment of less than $50. Your actual rates and repayment terms may vary.
<sup>2</sup>The 0.25% auto-pay interest rate reduction applies as long as the borrower or cosigner, if applicable, enrolls in auto-pay and authorizes our loan servicer to automatically deduct your monthly payments from a valid bank account via Automated Clearing House ("ACH"). The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%. Advertised rates shown include both interest rate reductions. Rates are valid as of 2/1/2018. Variable rates may increase after consummation.
$5,000 is the minimum requirement to refinance. The maximum loan amount is $250,000 for those with medical, dental, pharmacy or veterinary doctorate degrees, and $150,000 for all other undergraduate or graduate degrees.

The rate reduction applies for as long as the monthly payment amount is successfully deducted from the designated bank account and is suspended during periods of forbearance and certain deferments. Borrowers can take advantage of an additional 0.25% interest rate reduction if the automatic withdrawal comes from a qualifying Nationwide Bank account for a total interest rate reduction of 0.50%. Advertised rates shown include both interest rate reductions. Rates are valid as of 2/1/2018. Variable rates may increase after consummation.
$5,000 is the minimum requirement to refinance. The maximum loan amount is $250,000 for those with medical, dental, pharmacy or veterinary doctorate degrees, and $150,000 for all other undergraduate or graduate degrees.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

© 2018 Laurel Road Bank.
EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

EFT DISCOUNT
The interest rate table above is inclusive of all Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) discounts. To qualify for the EFT discount of 0.25%, monthly payments must be paid automatically from a bank account.
FIXED APR
Fixed rate options consist of a range from 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term, 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term, 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term, 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term, or 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. The fixed interest rate will apply until the loan is paid in full (whether before or after default, and whether before or after the scheduled maturity date of the loan). The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.75% per year to 6.15% per year for a 5-year term would be from $183.04 to $194.03. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.50% per year to 6.74% per year for a 7-year term would be from $139.00 to $149.66. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.75% per year to 7.00% per year for a 10-year term would be from $104.85 to $116.11. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.24% per year to 7.24% per year for a 15-year term would be from $80.34 to $91.23. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 5.60% per year to 7.24% per year for a 20-year term would be from $69.35 to $78.98.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the fixed rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular fixed interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
VARIABLE APR
Variable rate options consist of a range from 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term, 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term, 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term, 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term, or 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term, with no origination fees. APR is subject to increase after consummation. The variable interest rates are based on a Current Index, which is the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition). The variable interest rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will increase or decrease when the 3-month LIBOR index changes. The variable interest rates are calculated by adding a margin ranging from 1.82% to 4.25% for the 5-year term loan, 1.95% to 4.45% for the 7-year term loan, 2.48% to 4.65% for the 10-year term loan, 2.82% to 5.00% for the 15-year term loan, and 3.03% to 5.25% for the 20-year term loan, respectively, to the daily average of the 3-month LIBOR index published on each business day during the 91-day period ending on the 20th day of the calendar month immediately preceding each “Change Date,” as defined below, rounded to two decimal places, with no origination fees. (For purposes of determining the 3-month LIBOR index, a business day is any Monday through Friday excluding U.S. federal holidays.) The variable interest rate will change quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter (“Change Date”) if the Current Index changes. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.24% per year to 5.67% per year for a 5-year term would be from $180.76 to $191.80. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.37% per year to 5.87% per year for a 7-year term would be from $133.81 to $145.46. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 3.90% per year to 6.07% per year for a 10-year term would be from $100.77 to $111.37. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.24% per year to 6.42% per year for a 15-year term would be from $75.18 to $86.67. The monthly payment for a sample $10,000 loan at a range of 4.45% per year to 6.67% per year for a 20-year term would be from $63.00 to $75.56.
However, if the borrower chooses to make monthly payments automatically by electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a bank account, the variable rate will decrease by 0.25%, and will increase back up to the regular variable interest rate described in the preceding paragraph if the borrower stops making (or we stop accepting) monthly payments automatically by EFT from the designated borrower's bank account.
MAXIMUM RATES
Borrowers who take out a variable loan with a term of 5, 7, or 10 years will have a maximum interest rate of 9%. Borrowers who take out a 15 or 20-year variable loan will have a maximum interest rate of 10%.
FEE INFORMATION
Laurel Road has no origination fees and no prepayment penalties. However, if Laurel Road does not receive any part of a payment within 15 days after the due date, it may assess a late fee not to exceed 5% of the late payment or $28, whichever is less. The borrower may be charged $20 for any payment (including a check or an electronic payment) that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds (NSF) or a closed account.
LOAN AMOUNT
Up to 100% of outstanding private and federal student loans (minimum $5,000). If you are refinancing greater than $300,000 in student loan debt, Laurel Road will refinance the loans into 2 or more new loans.
ELIGIBILITY
Must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident with a valid I-551 card and meet Laurel Road underwriting criteria (including, for example, employment, employer size, debt-to-income, disposable income, total student loan debt relative to annual salary level, and credit history requirements).
ELIGIBLE LOANS
Graduates may refinance and/or consolidate any unsubsidized or subsidized Federal or private student loan that was used exclusively for qualified higher education expenses (as defined in 26 USC Section 221) at an accredited U.S. undergraduate or graduate school. All loans must be in grace or repayment status and cannot be in default.
INTEREST RATES
The interest rate you are offered will depend on your credit profile, income, and total debt payments as well as your choice of fixed or variable and choice of term. For applicants who are currently medical or dental residents, your rate offer may also vary depending on whether you have secured employment for after residency.
DISBURSEMENT OPTIONS
The repayment of any refinance and/or consolidation student loan will commence (1) immediately after disbursement by us, or (2) after any grace or in-school deferment period, existing prior to refinancing and/or consolidation with us, has expired.
POSTPONING OR REDUCING PAYMENTS
After loan disbursement, if a borrower documents a qualifying economic hardship, we may agree in our discretion to allow for full or partial forbearance of payments for one or more 3-month time periods (not to exceed 12 months in the aggregate during the term of your loan), provided that we receive acceptable documentation (including updating documentation) of the nature and expected duration of the borrower’s economic hardship.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow a borrower to make $100/month payments for a period of time immediately after loan disbursement if the borrower is employed full-time as an intern, resident, or similar postgraduate trainee at the time of loan disbursement. These payments may not be enough to cover all of the interest that accrues on the loan. Unpaid accrued interest will be added to your loan and monthly payments of principal and interest will begin when the post-graduate training program ends.
We may agree under certain circumstances to allow postponement (deferral) of monthly payments of principal and interest for a period of time immediately following loan disbursement (not to exceed 6 months after the borrower’s graduation with an eligible degree), if the borrower is an eligible student in the borrower’s final term at the time of loan disbursement or graduated less than 6 months before loan disbursement, and has accepted an offer of (or has already begun) full-time employment.
If Laurel Road agrees (in its sole discretion) to postpone or reduce any monthly payment(s) for a period of time, interest on the loan will continue to accrue for each day principal is owed. Although the borrower might not be required to make payments during such a period, the borrower may continue to make payments during such a period. Making payments, or paying some of the interest, will reduce the total amount that will be required to be paid over the life of the loan. Interest not paid during any period when Laurel Road has agreed to postpone or reduce any monthly payment will be added to the principal balance through capitalization (compounding) at the end of such a period, one month before the borrower is required to resume making regular monthly payments.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or possess a 10-year (non-conditional) Permanent Resident Card, reside in a state Earnest lends in, and satisfy our minimum eligibility criteria. You may find more information on loan eligibility here: https://www.earnest.com/eligibility. Not all applicants will be approved for a loan, and not all applicants qualify for the lowest rate. Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.

Approval and interest rate depend on the review of a complete application.
Earnest's fixed rate loan rates range from 3.25% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). Variable rate loan rates range from 2.57% APR (with autopay) to 6.19% APR (with autopay). For variable rate loans, although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 8.95% for loan terms of 10 years or less. For loan terms of 10 to 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 9.95%. For loan terms over 15 years, the interest rate will never exceed 11.95% (the maximum rates for these loans). Earnest variable interest rate loans are based on a publicly available index, the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Your rate will be calculated each month by adding a margin between 1.82% and 5.50% to the one month LIBOR. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Earnest rate ranges are current as of 3/26/2018 and are subject to change based on market conditions and borrower eligibility.
<sup>1</sup>Explanation of $21,810 Average Client Savings: Average savings calculation is based on all Earnest clients who refinanced their student loans between 1/1/15 and 6/10/16. The savings of a particular client is calculated by subtracting the projected lifetime cost of their Earnest refinancing from the projected total cost of their original student loan, which is calculated using the original loan's APR and monthly payment based on the same principal balance as their requested Earnest loan. You may find more information on loan savings here: https://www.earnest.com/savings-disclaimer
<sup>2</sup>Autopay Discount: If you make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic, monthly deduction from a savings or checking account, your rate will be reduced by one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for so long as you continue to make automatic, electronic monthly payments. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance.
