    PAY FOR COLLEGE WITH AN IRA — PENALTY FREE

    You can withdraw money from your IRA to pay for tuition, books, housing and more. Do it penalty free for your child, yourself, or your spouse.

Borrow Responsibly We encourage students and families to start with savings, grants, scholarships and federal student loans to pay for college. Students and families should evaluate all anticipated monthly loan payments, and how much the student expects to earn in the future, before considering a private student loan.

These loans are made by Sallie Mae Bank or a lender partner. Old National Bank is not the creditor for these loans and is compensated by Sallie Mae for the referral of loan customers.
