Upstart Requirements for Borrowers

- Income: $12,000 annual income from sources like a job, a job offer, disability or retirement income
- Age: 18+ years old (19 in NE & AL)
- Identification: Social Security number, a verifiable name and date of birth, and an email address

Before you apply for any personal loan, it’s a good idea to pre-qualify. While meeting all of the requirements gives you a good chance of approval, it’s never guaranteed. You can pre-qualify without hurting your credit score on Upstart’s website.
When you check your rate, we check your credit report. This initial (soft) inquiry will not affect your credit score. If you accept your rate and proceed with your application, we do another (hard) credit inquiry that will impact your credit score. If you take out a loan, repayment information may be reported to the credit bureaus.
