Take The Business Assessment

Take our business assessment to see if you are ready for a loan.
2. Application
If your results indicate you may be ready for a loan with Pathway, we'll connect you with a loan application. And if you are not quite loan-ready, we'll introduce you to Pathway Navigator, a resource hub full of tools, events, and peer groups to help your business grow.
3. Submit Your Documentation
If you are application ready- you may be asked to provide documentation including but not limited to tax returns and a business debt schedule.
