College, military,
first-time
Just graduated, serving overseas, or buying your first car? Audi has programs that might help, and we’ll help you see if one fits.
These programs are how Audi helps people get into a car. Here is how each one actually works.
Nothing here is a promise of approval. Bring your documents, and we will check what fits.
College Graduate Program
From Audi Financial Services. Leasing and financing are both on the table. No credit history is required (existing credit must be in good standing). No co-signer required. No security deposit on a new lease.
You may qualify if
- You are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
- You graduated in the past 24 months, or you will graduate in the next six months, from an accredited U.S. or Canadian college or university.
- The degree is an Associate’s, Bachelor’s, Master’s, Doctorate, or Nursing (RN or LPN).
- You are employed, or you have a written commitment from a future employer.
- On a lease, the monthly payment does not exceed 25% of your gross monthly income.
Bring this
Driver’s license, proof of insurance, a copy of your degree or transcript plus school contact info, and proof of income and employment with a human-resources or payroll contact.
First-time Buyer Program
This is a lease program for a new Audi if you have never had automotive credit. Credit history is not required, but existing credit must be in good standing with no previous derogatory credit. You need at least one year of residence in our market area, and credit approval from Audi Financial Services.
Bring this
- Proof of income, with at least one year of verifiable full-time work at your current employer
- A payroll or human-resources contact
- Proof of address and phone
- A copy of your U.S. Social Security card (not when leasing in Washington)
- Two personal references in the U.S. Audi can call — one must be a relative
Military Select Program
Audi of America runs a Military Select program for verified service members and eligible family. Verify with ID.me, then bring the six-character authorization code to us. Eligible people include active duty, National Guard, Reserve, retirees, veterans, spouses, surviving spouses, and immediate family. Eligible models change — we will check yours. Current bonus amounts live on Audi’s military page and on our store military page; we will apply whatever is running when you buy or lease. It does not stack with dealer-employee, innovator, corporate, or VIP/diplomat programs.
If you are stationed outside the U.S., that is a different path: Military AutoSource handles Audi leasing for active-duty military, civilian, Department of Defense employees, and the diplomatic community overseas.
License, proof of income and residence, and your Social Security or taxpayer identification number.
College grads add a degree or transcript. Military Select needs the ID.me code. First-time buyers add references and a year of full-time employment proof. Every situation is different, so ask us and we’ll check what you qualify for.
We’ll sit down and see what fits.
Bring trade-in info if you have a car to turn in.
