About Ascent Funding

Ascent is built around one guiding principle: Student loans should expand possibilities, not limit them. That’s why Ascent created a private student loan program that gives students more opportunities to qualify for a loan, with or without a cosigner. Ascent encourages transparency and financial wellness by incorporating financial education into the application process, preserving the notion that an education is an investment where students and families should understand the return on their investment relative to the cost. Ascent offers benefits (such as 1% cash back, scholarships, a Refer a Friend Program, a Rewards Program, and more) as well as resources that set students and families up for financial success.

It was a quick turnaround
It was a quick turnaround. Easy to navigate. The only thing I’d like to add is that it would be nice to speak with someone throughout process. Received notice that bill was paid. Where does rest of money go for next semester? Is it held by you or sent to my son? I would also like a receipt. Thanks much!

Easy to work with
Easy to work with - rate was good for my son who was a first year student. Seemed to take a long time to disperse.
