Student Line of Credit


Let's face it, life can be expensive. Sometimes you need access to additional funds for things like tuition, housing, transportation or emergencies. Smart borrowing makes sense and we have the products and advice to help.

A student line of credit is an affordable way to make continuing education possible. At East Coast Credit Union, our student loans and lines of credit are available to any full or part time student attending a recognized post-secondary educational institution in a degree, diploma or certificate program.


Student Line of Credit Features:

  • Full time students may borrow, on approved credit, up to $75,000 for their education or up to $150,000 for students enrolled in professional designations.
  • Pay interest only on your loan while attending the program that has been financed.
  • Competitive rates of interest and flexible repayment schedules available to meet a student’s needs.
  • Repayment of your loan begins 12 months after your program completion.
  • Take up to 15 years to repay your student loan (if over $25,000).
