CAN YOU GET THIS?
YOUR REAL ODDS
Odds depend on your creditworthiness and loan type, not a competitive grant selection process.
This is a lending program, not a grant — approval is based on standard underwriting criteria. Rolling applications mean you can apply any time without waiting for a cycle.
WHAT IT TAKES
Confirm membership eligibility and join Peach State FCU — 1–2 days
Identify the right loan product (SBA, equipment, real estate, etc.) and gather financial documents — 1–2 weeks
Submit loan application and work with a loan officer — 1–4 weeks depending on loan type
WORTH KNOWING
Peach State FCU is a CDFI-affiliated credit union, which may mean more flexible underwriting than a traditional bank — worth asking about if your business is early-stage or has limited credit history.
