How it Works

Match

You select from pre-vetted, talented students while they’re entering or already in school.

Commit

You commit upfront to repay their loans after graduation, in exchange for a future employment period.

Hire

Students sign employment agreements while still in school, and officially join your company after graduation.

Repay

Once hired, we handle all reporting and repayment, and you only pay down loans while employees are retained—so there’s nothing to claw back.

The results speak for themselves:

94% reduction in turnover

in year 1 across ~500 sponsored employees on Stride’s platform*
