One year to graduation or two years after graduation is eligeable for TFSsanguis said:What does TFS require from you in order to show proof of enrollment of a graduate degree program for their $400 discout offer? Do you need to buy and then present an official transcript to the dealership? I hope an unofficial transcript and a student ID will work so I can save that $10 my school charges :wink:
TFS wholesale buy rate these days at 5.25 % 60 months term: Qualification, Sign & Drive FICO at 730 or above. 690~729 at 5.45 %sanguis said:Im in graduate school part time for just a master's, and working full time. I've already got pre-approval from my bank, if TFS can match the interest rate, I'll go for the $400 savings. The generic TFS website payment estimater predicts a 1.5% higher interest rate with my FICO score than my bank--looks doubtful but will try anyhow
The TFS website only says 90 days, not your 6 mo deal; maybe its a NC thing
Galaxee, sorry that you had to pay that rate ! The law (CA) says that dealergalaxee said:whoa whoa whoa!

can mark up that "Wholesale" up to 3% points. However, if you want to convert that rate to:
TFS _Encore_ repeat customer rate then should be
at Buy rate _minus_0.25% so by converting it now you should be able to save
big time ! Providing that you have been with TFS for more than 11 months
Trick of the Trade.... I should not _Divulge_ classified industry secret but
hey I do love everyone in this forum.
Oh what a feeling to help some one !
Rickey...are you sure it's 11 months to get the encore? My dealer told me it was 9 months...I didn't need a loan, but took out a small one in order to get my wife the college grad rebate, etc....I had planned to pay off loan after 9 months in order to get the quarter-point if I ever need another TFS loan...if it's really 11 months I'd better reduce my payment amount.C.Rickey Hirose said:[However, if you want to convert that rate to:
