Loans
2009-10 Loan Application Instructions (Loan Information Letter - pdf)
Loans are funds that must be repaid by the student or, in the case of the Parent PLUS Loan, by the parent. The interest accrued and the repayment schedule depends upon the type of loan as well as the lending institution. There are various types of education loans that can assist students and parents in paying for a college education. We believe this information will assist you in your decisions. Please feel free to contact the loan department staff if you have any questions. The deadline for applying for loans is the last day of classes in the spring (or the last day of summer classes if you are attending summer session).
