Before you borrow

Questions to ask first

Compare the full cost

Review APR, finance charges, late fees, payment due dates and the total amount you will repay, not just the monthly payment.

Check affordability and alternatives

Consider savings, a credit union, a payment plan or other lower-cost alternatives. Never borrow more than you can reasonably repay.
