You will have the chance to be teamed up with our Financial Coaching team and explore additional resources, such as in-house grants designed to strengthen financial stability and improve long-term financial success. With competitive rates, flexible underwriting, and a commitment to serving our communities, Southwest Louisiana Credit Union is ready to help you get back on the road with confidence.

Start your application today and let us take another look at your auto loan needs.

By clicking Apply for a Second look you are applying for our Pathways Financial Coaching application which will help determine your eligibility for an auto loan. 

Please complete the application honestly and thoroughly. This authorizes a soft credit inquiry, which allows us to review your credit history without affecting your credit score.

The information you provide helps us determine the best path to auto loan approval. Our goal is to help you get into a vehicle as quickly as possible.
