Climb Credit expands access to education with high-approval student loans, boosting enrollment and financial inclusion.

College enrollment in the U.S. is on the decline. While there isn’t just one factor to blame for this, rising tuition costs are one of the major obstacles to enrollment for many students. As costs increase, the need for educational loans grows, but these aren’t straightforward to qualify for.
Traditional private loans usually have low approval rates, which can make getting into college feel out of reach. And it’s not just students bearing the brunt; educational institutions also end up losing potential students and revenue.
Climb Credit offers an alternative to traditional student loans to make higher education accessible for students of all credit profiles and increase enrollment for educational institutions.
Climb Credit’s Solution: Flexible and Accessible High-Approval Loans
Climb Credit provides private student loans that prioritize accessibility. Unlike traditional lenders, such as banks and other financial institutions that rely heavily on credit scores, Climb Credit uses several data points to determine eligibility for loans.
By analyzing over 150 factors beyond a simple credit score, Climb Credit gives students a fair and higher chance of qualifying for loan approval. So, even with a low credit score — or no score at all — you could still get financing to pursue skills training. Additionally, if your initial application isn’t approved, you can reapply with a co-borrower to increase your chances of approval.
How Does It Work?
Climb Credit partners with schools across the U.S. that offer skill-based training programs. Through these partnerships, you can enroll in courses or programs at these schools and access affordable payment options.
When you’re ready to apply, the loan application is entirely online and takes less than five minutes to complete.
The Benefits for Educational Institutions
Climb Credit’s high approval rate for loans offers several advantages to its partner schools, including:
Increased Enrollment Rates
Without financial means, institutions might turn away qualified students who want to enroll in their training programs, negatively affecting the institution’s enrollment rate. Climb Credit solves this problem by providing loans to students who would otherwise not qualify for traditional loans.
Improved Conversion Rates for Applications
Many students fall off between the application and enrollment stages, with financial reasons being one of the main causes. With Climb Credit’s high approval loan rates, educational institutions can expect to see increased conversions from accepted students who can now afford to pay their way through the program.
Strengthened Student Pipelines
When more students can secure funding, schools’ training programs experience a more consistent enrollment of students instead of one-time spikes. This creates long-term growth for the programs because each new cohort builds upon the previous one.
Expanded Reach
A partnership with Climb Credit helps attract a bigger pool of potential students, including those who couldn’t qualify for traditional loans.
The Benefits for Students
Students, especially those without financial access, see the biggest benefits from Climb Credit’s high approval rates.
Increased access to career-focused education: With a Climb Credit loan, many students can pursue their educational and career goals even if they don’t qualify for traditional loans*.
Reduced financial stress and uncertainty: If approved, you don’t have to worry about getting funding to cover your tuition or dropping out because you can’t raise enough funds. You can still qualify for a Climb Credit loan even with bad credit because the process considers a variety of factors.
Financial flexibility: Climb Credit provides flexible payment options for your education loans, depending on the training program you choose. If you decide to pay off your loan sooner than the full length of the program, you can do so with no prepayment penalty. If you decide to drop after your program begins, Climb will work with you and your school according to their refund policy.
