Student Loans

We work with Iowa Student Loan to offer supplemental private loans to help you pay for college as well as refinance existing student loan debt. As an Iowa non-profit and the state’s student loan experts, Iowa Student Loan offers competitively priced loans.*

The Partnership Advance Education Loan (Partnership Loan) and College Family Loan were created to help you pay college costs while you are or your student is in school.

The Partnership Loan is for students and their cosigners.
The College Family Loan is for parents, family members and others who wish to borrow on behalf of a student.

The Reset Refinance Loan can help you simplify repayment or pay lower interest costs on existing student loans after college.

With these loans, you know what you’re getting before you apply as all terms and conditions, including credit score requirements for specific rates, are provided upfront. In addition, there are no upfront origination fees and you can earn an interest rate reduction for making payments by auto-debit in repayment. Note: These loans are subject to credit approval.

Learn More & Apply Now

Before applying for a private loan, be sure to complete the FAFSA, or Free Application for Federal Student Aid, first. You should also work with our college financial aid office to explore and exhaust all sources of student financial aid before seeking a private student loan.

First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account

A First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account (FTHSA) is a new type of savings account passed by the Iowa legislature to make purchasing a first home easier. The law allows Iowans to make tax-deductible contributions into a First-Time Homebuyer Savings Account to be used for the purchase of a home. Those who already own a home can open and contribute to an account for a designated first-time homebuyer and receive a tax deduction on Iowa state taxes too.

The FTHSA is a brand new account that will be available starting January 2, 2018 at Marion County Bank. Consult your tax or legal professional for definitive legal guidelines and instructions or view the Iowa Legislature's State Senate File 505for details of the law.

Account Benefits at Marion County Bank:

Interest Earning -

The FTHSA at Marion County Bank is interest earning. Contact Customer Service for current rate.

Iowa Tax Benefits -

The account holder may claim a deduction for Iowa individual income tax made during the year by the account holder. The amount deducted may not exceed $2,000 a year. Married taxpayers who file a joint return may deduct up to $4,000 a year if the FTHSA is opened and maintained as a joint account.
Interest earned on account balances is also exempt from Iowa income tax.
The state of Iowa tax deduction for account contributions is available for up to ten years.
The annual deduction limits are adjusted annually for inflation.
