I was a little skeptical at first because of the low rates and the easy/online application process... I thought for sure there would be hidden costs and that it was too good to be true. So I researched online and read all these other great reviews and decided to go for it. I applied, got an awesome rate, verified my info online and over the phone, and saw the funds deposited this morning! I read through the terms/condition (i.e the promissory note, loan agreement, etc) with a fine tooth comb and am very pleased with how Upstart does business. Happy to be working with them and would definitely recommend to others.

This company means it when they say that you have to have a good credit score, and a college degree. I had to apply twice before I got a loan. I waited a few months until my credit score went up a little bit. Fortunately, I do have a degree with student loans to prove it. The customer service is pretty good, the interest rate was really good, but my loan origination fee was higher than I thought it would be. Still better than a lot of other loan companies with crazy interest rates.

Upstart provides a much needed service for our generation! Many of us are graduating from college with debt to predatory credit card companies that we foolishly signed up for during our education. Upstart offered me a way of managing this debt and creating a solid plan for paying off my credit cards and getting my finances under control! Thank you to everyone who showed so much patience and even took time to make sure their offer was the most beneficial strategy FOR ME!

The only issue with upstart is that any overpayment is applied to future payments rather than principal in the period. They don't inform you when you set it up unless you have some financial savvy. I noticed my overpayment was going to principal in the current period when my amount due started decreasing. I noticed and they stated that you can't make auto debit payments on the due date but you need to make it earlier for it to be applied.

This was a great experience, and at a time when I was going to have difficulty getting a loan because some of my cards are maxed. This allows me to bring my credit score back up by bringing my revolving balances back down, knowing I will have them paid off in 3 years or less. My loan advisor was awesome and friendly and the follow through was superb.
