BFF’s Recent language change
We’ve recently updated our language to better reflect our program. This may look different than what you remember when you signed up. Your contract terms, protections, and finish points remain the same - we are simply changing the name. We previously called your contract an Income Share Agreement (ISA); now it will be called a Student Education Fund Agreement, or SEF Agreement.
We’ve also added a new term: a Fellow.
Once you sign your first SEF Agreement and until your obligation is complete, you’re now a BFF Fellow. While you’re still enrolled in school, we may refer to you as either a Fellow or a student.
Use the links below to quickly access the tools and resources you need to manage what is now your Student Education Fund Agreement.
Current students
In School
While you are enrolled, you do not have to make payments towards your SEF Agreement. Instead, we want you to focus on your education and your path to graduation. While you’re in school, you only have a few responsibilities in regards to your SEF Agreement.
Set up an Account
Set up an account with our new in house platform. This is required and where you’ll be able to manage all aspects of your SEF Agreement.

While in school, if you could benefit from additional funding, reapply with us at any time.
