Talking to a Co-Signer

Important points to review with a possible co-signer

Even though you think a potential co-signer will be hesitant to help you borrow the money for tuition, this person really does want to see you succeed and advance in your career. Take the time to discuss these points so they can see what you are really asking for.

Show your co-signer the information package that was sent to you

These materials have been designed to clearly explain the training program and present a professional image that reflects the high standards of our school.

Remember that an investment in your education is an investment in your future

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, those with the most formal training get the highest-paying jobs.

Employers look for qualified, trained employees

The job market for certified Heavy Equipment Operators is growing. Operators are in demand all over the country. Upon graduating, you will receive your National Certification Card directly from the NCCER.

NAHETS vs. traditional college

After several weeks of training, you have the potential to earn more than many entry level jobs that require a 4-year college degree.

Save money in the long run

A co-signer with better credit will allow you to save a lot of money in the long run, because you will be eligible for a lower interest rate.

You can take over the loan

It is important to know that with many loans, after you make 24 consecutive payments on time, you may be able to remove the co-signer's name from the loan.
