ADA Announces Exclusive Student Loan Refinancing Offer with DRB to Help Members Refinance Their Dental School Loans

The American Dental Association (ADA) today announced an exclusive endorsement with DRB (Darien Rowayton Bank), a leader and the fastest marketplace lender to $1 billion originations in student loan refinancing. The endorsement allows ADA member dentists the opportunity to refinance existing federal and private undergraduate and graduate school loans at a lower rate to save tens of thousands of dollars, on average. 

 

"We've listened carefully to our members, particularly those in the early stages of their dental careers, and many have indicated that paying off student loan debt is one of their greatest concerns," said ADA President Maxine Feinberg, DDS. "By teaming up with DRB, the ADA provides our members with lower rates that translate into greater peace of mind and substantial savings at a pivotal point in their careers.  This is just one of the ways that we are investing in the future of dentistry."

 

The ADA is committed to working with new dentists who are in the most challenging stage in their career. The DRB low rate student refinance loan, offered at both fixed and variable rates, is one of the many resources that the ADA provides to new dentists. The ADA endorsement not only gives ADA members access to one of the lowest student loan refinance lenders in the country, but the ADA has also secured from DRB preferential interest rates for its members who qualify.

 

"We are thrilled to work with the ADA to offer its members some of the lowest student loan rates in the industry," said Gary Lieberman, Chairman of the Board at DRB. "The average dentist graduates with $247,000 in student loan debt and dentists who refinance with DRB can save an average of $38,000* with a fixed-rate refinance loan. With these savings, they can focus on their patients and not on their student debt."

 

The endorsement is effective immediately. Only ADA member dentists are eligible for this exclusive student loan refinancing offer from DRB, and annual renewal of ADA membership is a requirement to receive the lower rates per the terms of the agreement.

  

Fastest marketplace lender to $1 billion in industry history for student loan refinancing originations, DRB (Darien Rowayton Bank) is a leader in student lending. FDIC insured and established in 2006, DRB Student Loan has helped thousands of professionals with graduate and undergraduate degrees across the country to refinance and consolidate more than $1.0 billion in federal and private student loans, saving these borrowers thousands of dollars.
