Award notices concerning aid for the upcoming academic year are usually sent to new students in April and to returning students by the end of June. These notices contain instructions concerning Federal Stafford and other loans.
If the funds received through the Stafford or other federal loan programs are not sufficient to meet your needs, alternative loans are available up to the total cost of attendance. Please visit the financial aid website for additional information.
You only need to provide parental information if you want to be considered for a Health Professions Loan. For the Health Professions Loan, the parental information section of the FAFSA must be completed regardless of your dependency status, age, or marital status. If you are applying for a Federal Stafford Loan ONLY, the parental information section need not be completed.
Stafford Loans for a period longer than 1 semester are divided into 2 disbursements with the second disbursement being issued at the start of the second semester.
You will receive a net bill. This is the amount due after anticipated awards. This amount needs to be paid by the due date. When the loans can be disbursed, the disbursements will apply to tuition and fees.
Funds above the cost of fees are available by the first day of class for each academic period.
