Corona Virus Resources

Bridge Loan Program

The Cities of College Station and Bryan have partnered with the Brazos Valley Council of Governments to create a Bridge Loan Program to assist small businesses that have seen at least a 15% reduction in revenue due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

The loans provide the businesses with working capital until they receive permanent assistance, primarily through the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL).

Maturity of 3 years at an interest rate of 3% with no payments required for up to 6 months
Loan recipients must repay the loan once their Economic Injury Disaster Loan is funded
