SoFi Lets Students Borrow Money For School From Alumni | mashable.com

If you’re looking for cash for school, then you may not have to look any further than your fellow alumni. Meet SoFi, a social lending service that lets alumni of a school help finance the education of future graduates and earn a bit of a return on their investment as well. The way the program works is simple. Alumni invest money in their particular school’s funding, and then students apply just as they might to any other college loan.
