What is a Credit Re-Builder?

FSU Credit Union’s Credit Re-Builder Loan Program was developed to allow members with a colorful credit history to access credit and demonstrate their ability to repay, thereby rebuilding a positive credit rating.

 

Who is eligible for a credit rebuilder loan?

The program is made available to those members who have demonstrated loyalty to our organization and their employer. In order to receive this loan, applicants must be a member for 3 or more years AND employed with their present employers for 3 or more years.

FSU Credit Union's Rebuilder Program is designed to benefit members in four ways:

  1. Providing a source of credit that may not be available elsewhere without the member’s paying extremely high-interest rates.
  2. Providing a way to correct current or past credit problems, thereby re-establishing creditworthiness over time, through a specific, step-by-step process.
  3. Reducing the member’s interest expense through time, by helping the member re-establish a favorable credit score.
  4. Allowing the credit union to help you help yourself.
