How does Hawthorne make decisions on loan applications?
We use a system that allows more members access to loans at their credit union. The rate and amount of the loan you may be approved for depends on your credit history and other financial factors. While not all our members are eligible for our premium loan rates, we try to accommodate our members as best we can.
