• You signed your loan agreement for a SoFi Private Student Loan during the promotional period.
• The first disbursement on your eligible student loan has been sent to your school.
Please note: If you apply for and are approved for multiple loans, you will be eligible to receive the reward once for the academic year associated with your loan(s). For example, if you took out a loan for Fall 2024 and Spring 2025, only one of those loans would be eligible for Good Grades Rewards.
Your final reward amount will be determined by the length of your loan period.
This reward is considered taxable income and may be reported on IRS Form 1099-MISC. We recommend you consult a tax professional for advice.

Reward Redemption: To redeem the reward, you must log in to your SoFi account and fill out the redemption form. The form should be completed after accepting the loan and receiving your cumulative GPA for the academic period associated with the loan. The redemption form will become available after the first disbursement of your loan has been received by your school.
Upon self-attestation of your cumulative GPA, a credit of $100 or $250 will be added to the SoFi Checking and Savings account registered under your name.
In the event your SoFi Checking and Savings account application is declined, we will email instructions to credit you the rewards amount via Automated Clearing House (ACH). We may request additional documentation to verify the GPA (or equivalent) provided on the redemption form.
