Iowa Student Loan will provide its Serviced Lenders with an allowance equal to 0.25% of the loan balance, on behalf of students, for the lender to provide a benefit to the borrower. Most lenders will apply this amount toward the up-front origination fee (set at 1.00% beginning July 1, 2008), while a few lenders may utilize this amount to benefit borrowers during repayment.
