Terms and Conditions Apply. In order to qualify, a borrower must have a valid SSN, U.S. address, and meet Harvard FCU’s underwriting requirements. Applicant must have a responsible financial history, and meet other conditions.  

1. Interest Rate & APR. Your interest rate is determined by the term option you select, and your creditworthiness. Not all borrowers receive the lowest rate. Interest is charged daily throughout the life of the loan, beginning on the first date of disbursement, through any grace or deferment period, and ending when the loan is paid in full. Harvard FCU does not accept principal only payments. All payment are first applied to fees, interest, and then principal. Calculations are estimates only. Actual rates and payment information may vary based upon applicable terms. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice. Such changes will only apply to applications taken after the effective date of the change.
The APR assumes you have a six-month deferment period, starting on the disbursement date, before repayment begins. You are not required to make payment on your loan during your deferment period, however you can make principal and interest payments at any time. All payments are first applied to fees, interest, and then principal.

Loan Example: Repayment examples assume a 6-month grace period (deferment period begins on the date of disbursement). Borrowing $10,000 at 7.00% and 5 year term, results in 6.99% APR, monthly payment of $204.92, finance charge of $2,295.20 and total repayment of $12,295.20. Due to the deferment period, the APR is lower than the interest rate.

2. AUTO-PAY. In order to be eligible for the 0.25% interest rate reduction for automatic payments, you must be signed up for automatic payments through University Account Service (UAS). Payment must be set-up from a U.S. bank account. If at any-time automatic payments are stopped, the rate discount will not be applied. The discount will not reduce the monthly payment amount but will help you pay down the loan faster. Auto-pay is not required to obtain a loan. Harvard FCU reserves the right to change rate discounts at any time.

3. RELATIONSHIP DISCOUNT. A qualifying relationship discount is considered an active checking account for a minimum of 12 months, or any non-education Harvard FCU loan product. Discount to be applied after the loan is disbursed, if applicable. Member must contact the credit union to receive the discount. The discount will not reduce the monthly payment amount but will help you pay down the loan faster. Harvard FCU reserves the right to modify or discontinue relationship benefits at its discretion without notice.

4. PRIME RATE. All current Harvard FCU products offer a fixed interest rate. Variable and hybrid rate education loans reprice quarterly in January, April, July, and October based on the prime rate published on the 1st of the preceding month. The prime rate of the last repricing was 6.75%, adjusted on April 1, 2026. 

5. MEMBERSHIP. Membership in the Credit Union requires a $5 minimum deposit in a Share Savings Account. Education Loan borrowers must be the primary accountholder to meet the membership requirement.

Note: Bar Loans are treated as private education loans for federal consumer disclosure purposes. However, unless all the proceeds of these loans are used for qualified higher education expenses under federal tax law, the interest on the loans may not be eligible for the student loan interest deduction.
