How much you can borrow with a personal loan depends largely on your debt-to-income ratio, which is how much of your monthly income goes to paying ongoing obligations like your rent, car payment, or credit card bills. Many lenders also have minimum credit score requirements for credit approval.

The upper limits for personal loans vary by lender but typically fall in the $35,000 to $50,000 range.
