FIRST - TIME BORROWERS

Complete your Entrance Counseling and sign the Master Promissory Note to receive your federal loans! Please be prepared to offer at least two references with full names, unique addresses, and phone numbers. Entrance Counseling online is interactive, but we are not sent any of the answers - it looks like a test but don't worry, it's definitely not! Feel free to take notes. You'll want to know this information when you complete school and it's time to repay loans. Please note that new students are also required to attend the live session during Orientation.

If you are returning to school and would like to place existing loans in education deferment, please contact your loan servicer. Stafford loans for first-time students will automatically be placed on in-school deferment.

IMPORTANT: In-school deferment is available for PLUS loans, but not automatic. Please contact your loan servicer to request the paperwork - they will email you shortly after you finish your MPN.

To request a Parent PLUS loan, please visit studentaid.gov.

Parent PLUS Loan applications open April 1, 2023.
