Horrible experience!!!
I strongly advise anyone considering this loan program to look elsewhere. Despite their heavy advertising of "no hidden fees" and "competitive rates," my experience has been the exact opposite. I applied for this program through a bootcamp recommendation, specifically drawn in by the "no payments for 12 months" offer. What they conveniently fail to mention and what no one tells you during the sign-up process is that you are still accruing and paying interest during those 12 months. Calling this a "no payment" period is intentionally misleading. Hidden Costs: The fees are astronomical and far from what was advertised.($500 processing fee) Do not trust the marketing. Read the fine print twice, or better yet, find someone that actually practices transparency. This has been a massive headache. Avoid at all costs.
