FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to implement a custom financial aid program?

Quotanda defines the financial aid program with the school and/or university. Depending on complexity, implementations range from a few days to weeks.

Is this option compatible with other financing options as well as bank financing?

Yes. While Quotanda-enabled student financing is often the only financial aid option needed, we also play well with others. In some cases we work with and/or originate loans for lenders in partnership with schools and universities. In other cases, the Quotanda-enabled financial aid option is an additional option for institutions to enroll students that were rejected by traditional lenders and are unable to enroll, or to stay in school, without financial aid.

What happens if a student defaults on their payments?

Quotanda analyzes student risk profiles to minimize defaults. In addition, Quotanda's team services student loan portfolios with a student-centric approach. In the case that payment obligations cannot be solved with a friendly agreement, Quotanda has partnerships with collections agencies in over 100 countries.

Who is the lender?

We work with all types of lenders including schools, universities, foundations and governments around the world. Typically the university or the school offers student loans or payment plans directly. We also sometimes work with schools and investor partners.

What is the main advantage of this program?

Quotanda helps our clients to increase student application, conversion and retention rates while improving the customer experience and reducing administration costs.

Quotanda manages digital origination and servicing so our clients don't need to hire a dedicated team and/or build any tech. In some cases our role is to make existing financial aid teams more efficient.

We often advise our clients on how to optimize their financial aid programs based on their goals. For example, we often improve and automate credit analysis, including the use of alternative data, to increase conversion rates and minimize default rates.

What is the interest rate and maturity of the loan?

The school or university decides what terms should be offered to students. Quotanda can provide recommendations but the custom financing program is adapted to your needs.
