Did you know that Arizona Federal is the only credit union in the Valley that offers student loans?

Due to recent regulatory changes, many lenders have stopped providing student loans. However, Arizona Federal—a student loan lender for over 20 years—continues to offer a suite of affordable student loan products to help students and families overcome the challenges of paying for higher education. If you’ll be applying for a student loan anytime soon, make sure you give the Arizona Federal lender code to your school’s financial aid office when you apply for your loan. Our lender code is 830168.

To learn more about Arizona Federal’s student loan products or apply for a student loan, call (602) 683-1219 or email our Student Loan Department at studentloans@azfcu.org. We can provide you with information on products and resources that will help you and your family attain and finance your higher education dreams.
