Types of First Nations Bank of Canada Student Lines of Credit
There are student lines of credit at First Nations Bank of Canada for students enrolled in accredited Canadian universities or colleges. FNBC doesn’t specify any differences in financing options depending on a program or field of study.
With a student line of credit, interest applies only to the amount you use during your study and the year after your graduation or residency. After graduating, you can spread your payments out for up to 20 years. In addition, lump-sum prepayments and the early payoff are penalty-free.
You can access funds from your student line of credit anytime through online, mobile, and telephone banking, at your local FNBC branch, or at an FNBC ATM. In addition, you can access your money anywhere you see the Interac® symbol by using your FNBC Access card.
