Sallie Mae, the nation's largest provider of student loans, and Kaplan, the leader in test preparation for graduate and professional schools, have announced the Kaplan Student Loan Program providing low-interest loans to eligible students wishing to take a test-prep course.

The program allows any Kaplan student who is a US citizen or a permanent resident with a social security number to be eligible for the program.

"This program opens doors to students who might not otherwise be able to afford test prep," said John Polstein, president of Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions. "The Kaplan Student Loan Program combines our leadership in test preparation and Sallie Mae's expertise in helping students finance their educations to provide educational opportunities for students nationwide."

Students can apply for the loans at their local Kaplan center or by calling 1-800-KAP-TEST.
