Program Details

We know tuition and books are expensive. That’s why Ford developed the College Student Purchase Program.
Driveu
Current college students and recent graduates may be eligible for $500 Bonus Cash1 toward the purchase or lease of an eligible new 2018/2019/2020 Ford vehicle.
In addition, qualified college students may be eligible to receive ā€œTop Tier Credit Approvalā€ when purchasing or leasing through Ford Credit! Yes, that’s correct! You will receive the same interest rates as people that have top credit ratings, in some cases that can mean 0% APR financing2 on a new Ford!
