College Tookit Offering Simple Tuition Loan Search Tool

Online higher education information provider College Toolkit (Brooklyn, NY) has partnered with SimpleTuition (Newton, MA) to provide online research tools to help students and parents visiting collegetookit.com analyze and compare student loan options using Simple Tuition's service.

College Toolkit provides information on admissions, scholarships, the financial aid process and career planning. With the Simple Tuition partnership, the site can help visitors objectively research student loans.

Visitors to the site see a "compare student loans" form on the home page that lets them instantly see their options by entering the loan amount needed, the date when they'll need it, their graduation date, and clicking "search now." They can investigate more than 100 loan alternatives from 45 different lenders, and sift them according to borrower benefits, annual percentage rate (APR), monthly payment and total loan amount.

The addition of the tuition search feature rounds out the site which already helps prospective college students identify scholarships and apply for them, research more than 4,000 higher education institutions, and examine 900 careers.
