Chris,
I must confess I’m a bit confused. I took the below comments on the “apply for a student loan” thread to mean that ATP was compatible with the Kentucky Advantage program. Has there been a change in the time since these were posted? Were these messages mistaken? Your own comments seem to indicate that they work with the program. I’m not saying this would keep me from going to either Bowling Green or Louisville, likely BG because cost of living is cheaper, but it seemed to be a significant bonus. Is there anyone from the financing department that may be able to weigh in?

There is a loan offered by the state of Kentucky called the Kentucky Advantage loan that is a much lower rate and supposedly a bit easier to get than either Sallie Mae or Wells Fargo. The catch is that is is only available for schooling or job training in Kentucky. So that means you would have to be willing to go to the Bowling Green location in order to use it. If finances are the only thing in your way you should definitely check into this. I’ve heard from several students at BG that this loan was the only reason they made it in at ATP.

Hey Spencer, I’m just curious, if you get approved with Kentucky advantage, why do they want you to go to bowling Green, are they affiliated? I have no problem going there if it means getting approved, Kentucky is a nice state and looks like the apartments for housing a really nice too.

They would want you to go to Bowling Green because it is a Kentucky based program.
