College is a big investment. But don’t worry‚
Susquehanna Valley FCU is here to help
with private student loans. These private
loans are designed to bridge the gap
between federal funding and the full
cost of the education.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••
SVFCU’s private loans offer:
Competitive interest rates —
and rates can go even lower
with good grades
1% interest rate reduction once you repay 10% of the loan
30-day no-fee return policy
No cosigner required for juniors and seniors — creditworthy students can apply on their own
Zero fees for borrowers who opt for interest-paid repayment option
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The loan can be used to pay for qualified education expenses‚ including tuition‚ room
and board‚ books or a computer. Full interest and principal payments are deferred
until 6 months after graduation and the repayment period is up to 10 years.
Borrow as little as $2‚500 or as much as $30‚000 per academic year.

Do You Need
Long-Term Care
Insurance?
Gregory J. Arendacs, D.M.D
If you’re one of the millions of baby boomers preparing
for retirement, looking into long-term care (LTC)
insurance should be near the top of the planning “to
do” list. According to a study by the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services, people who reach age 65
will likely have a 40 percent chance of entering a
nursing home. With the population generally living
longer, the need for LTC and protection from the burden
of its high costs is a distinct possibility in the future.

Little Hannah Is
a Big Winner!
When Hannah visited SVFCU
during Youth Week in April,
she thought she was
walking away with stamps
on her Stars & Stripes Kids
Club card, a Rice Krispies
treat and a bottle of
bubbles. But she later
learned that she was one of
only ten national Youth
Week savers to win $100!
Congratulations, Hannah!
CORNER
LTC includes a variety of services, including medical and
non-medical care for people who have a chronic illness
or disability. LTC is frequently associated with the elderly,
but accidents and illness can put even children in the
position of needing care.
The 2009 national yearly room rate in a nursing home
facility ranges from $72,270 to $79,935 (semi-private to
private room). Generally, Medicare pays only for
medically necessary skilled nursing facility or home care
for a limited number of days, leaving the patient
responsible for the majority of the cost. With this risk left
unmanaged, prolonged care may exhaust a large
portion of one’s life savings. That’s why it is important
to consider incorporating LTC options into your longterm financial plan.

improve your shopping experience, whether you’re shopping at the sale or
shopping at a dealership. Speak with an SVFCU loan officer to determine
how much you can afford and go shopping armed with a preapproval.

side. This section of our Web site offers tips on financing, taking
test drives and buying pre-owned vehicles.
