FAQs
What can I use a personal loan for?
Many people apply for a low-interest personal loan to consolidate high-interest credit card debt. These loans can also be used to fund major life purchases or expenses, like home improvements, weddings, unexpected medical expenses, moving expenses, or funerals.
What is a personal loan?
A personal loan is a loan offered by many banks, credit unions, or online personal loan lenders and typically range from $5K-$100K. While many loans specify how the money should be spent, personal loans allow for more flexibility and can be used to cover big expenses or consolidate high-interest debt with a more favorable rate.
Learn more: What is a Personal Loan?
Should I take out a personal loan to pay off my credit cards?
Personal loans can be used for a variety of purposes, but are commonly used to consolidate high-interest credit card debt. When using a personal loan to pay off credit card debt, the loan funding is used to pay off the cards’ outstanding balances. Ideally, the new debt consolidation loans will have a lower interest rate, making payments more manageable or saving the person money from accrued interest. Click here to learn more about the pros and cons of using low interest personal loans to consolidate debt.
Learn more: Using a Personal Loan to Pay Off Credit Card Debt
How can I calculate my expected monthly payments for a personal loan?
The monthly payment for a personal loan is determined by a variety of factors, including your interest rate, loan amount, loan term, and more. Our Personal Loan Calculator can help you figure out your monthly payments and decide whether applying for a personal loan is the right move for you.
Do personal loans require down payments?
No, unsecured personal loans do not require a down payment, unlike a secured home loan.
What credit score is needed for a personal loan?
Applying for personal loans online or at your financial institution will require meeting your lender’s criteria. Since most personal loans are unsecured (meaning they don’t require collateral) this criteria assures the lender that you can repay the loan. Lenders will typically evaluate your credit score, income, and debt-to-income ratio, among other factors. Lower credit scores could affect your eligibility, terms or rate for a SoFi Personal Loan.
Learn more: Typical Personal Loan Requirements Needed for Approval
Are SoFi Personal Loans fixed interest rate or variable interest rate loans?
SoFi Personal Loans are fixed rate loans. If you like the consistency of knowing exactly what your monthly payments will be over time, you might prefer a fixed rate loan. Also, if you plan to pay your loan back over a longer period of time, say 10 or 20 years, you might prefer to eliminate the risk of interest rate changes over time by selecting a fixed rate loan.
Does SoFi offer secured or unsecured personal loans?
SoFi Personal Loans are unsecured loans. This means that you do not need to provide collateral for the loan.
How much money can I get a personal loan for?
The answer depends on a wide range of factors, which mainly includes the type of lender and your
credit score. A SoFi Personal Loan allows applicants to borrow between $5,000 and $100,000.
Will applying for a personal loan affect my credit?
To check the rates and terms you qualify for, SoFi conducts a soft credit pull that will not affect your credit score. However, if you choose a product and continue your application, we will request your full credit report from one or more credit bureaus, which is considered a hard credit pull.
How long do I need to wait to reapply after my Personal Loan application has been declined?
You will need to wait at least 30 days before re-applying for a Personal Loan with the same borrower(s). You are welcome to retry at any time with a co-borrower, if the previous application was as a single borrower. If you initially applied with a co-borrower, you can retry as a single borrower or with a different co-borrower.

Refinancing Rates & Terms
The rates shown below include the autopay discount and 0.125% SoFi Plus discount. The SoFi 0.25% autopay interest rate reduction requires you to agree to make your scheduled monthly payments by an automatic monthly deduction (ACH) from a savings or checking account. The benefit will discontinue and be lost for periods in which you do not pay by automatic deduction from a savings or checking account. The discount will not reduce the monthly payment; instead, the discount is applied to the principal loan balance and is intended to help pay the loan down faster. Enrolling in autopay is not required to receive a loan from SoFi.
SoFi reserves the right to change interest rates at any time without notice. Such changes will only apply to applications begun after the effective date of the change.
Your actual interest rate may be different than the interest rates in these examples and will be based on term of loan, your financial history, and any other factors. State restrictions may apply.
The minimum payment of $100/month while in the Residency Period may not pay all of the interest that accrues each month during the Residency Period. Any unpaid interest that has accrued and remains unpaid at the end of the Residency Period will be added to the principal balance at the end of the Residency Period. Thereafter, interest will accrue on this new principal balance.
How to read the repayment tables
The repayment examples shown below are based on an original loan amount of $100,000 and assume that you make $100 monthly payments while in residency for a total of 4 years and have a 6-month grace period (together, the “residency period”) before the full repayment term begins. In addition, the examples below assume payments begin 1 month after the single lump sum disbursement. SoFi does not charge any application or origination fees, and no prepayment penalties.

Balancing Free Agency and Education: How SoFi Thinks About Helping Members Make Good Financial Decisions
At SoFi, we think a lot about how we build products to help consumers make good financial decisions. But we thought it’d be interesting to hear how others in the fintech space in San Francisco were considering these questions, too. So earlier today, we hosted a breakfast for members of the press at our new downtown engineering office space in San Francisco to discuss just that along with representatives from Robinhood, Wealthfront, Digit, and Plaid. The panel was moderated by Kristen Berman, co-founder of Irrational Labs with behavioral economist Dan Ariely and co-founder of the Common Cents Lab with Duke University. Here’s a quick recap.
