The Admire promise

No spam. No surprises. No selling your data.

Many loan “marketplaces” are lead aggregators that resell your contact info. We are not that — and we never will be.

Your info stays yours

We never sell your contact information. No “you’ve been approved!” scam calls, no surprise robocalls, no inbox flooding.

Unbiased & transparent

Offers are ranked by what’s best for you — rate, term, and total cost — not by who pays us the most. Every lender competes on equal footing.

Free means free

No fees to compare, no origination fees, no prepayment penalties from participating lenders. We’re paid by lenders — never by you.

“Lowered the rate — and released us.”We cosigned nearly $100k for my son’s medical school. He found a lender that lowered the rate and removed us from liability.

Good questions

Everything borrowers ask us.

Two decades of student lending experience, distilled. For deeper dives, visit our guides & resources.

How much does it cost to use Admire?
Nothing. We will never charge you to use Admire or any of the tools we offer. We’re compensated by lenders, so the service stays free for you.
Does Admire pull my credit score?
We use a soft credit pull to match you with lenders’ products — it has no effect on your credit score, and it still lets us show you highly accurate rates and terms.
Who should consider a private student loan?
Undergraduate and graduate students who need funds beyond federal aid — especially those attending accredited schools who can qualify on credit or with a creditworthy cosigner.
Who is eligible to refinance student loans?
Refinancing is ideal for graduates with stable income and good credit. It may save thousands over the life of your loan — but note that refinancing federal loans removes access to income-driven repayment and federal forgiveness programs.
Do I need a cosigner?
Most undergraduates need a cosigner to qualify or get better rates on private loans. For refinancing, a cosigner isn’t necessarily required, but one can improve approval odds and lower your rate.
