Stride Funding offers an affordable, flexible, and supportive way to pay for your education with Income Share Agreements (ISAs).

Income Share Agreements offer students an innovative alternative to traditional student loans. With an Income Share Agreement, you pay a small, fixed percentage of your future earned income over a 5 year term following graduation. We look at where you’re going, not where you’ve been, so rates are based on your expected earnings based on your program of study. Payments tied to income give students confidence that payments remain affordable, no matter their earnings. There is no accruing interest, no principal amount, and no hidden fees - all you pay is that small percentage of income over the 5 year term following graduation. ISAs are also considerably more flexible than traditional student loans, as borrowers never pay a dime if they make less than $40k/year. Because we only succeed when you do, we’re incentivized to help make your dreams a reality, which is why we provide career support and other membership benefits to each student we fund. It’s time to rethink how you pay for school!
