FEDERAL DIRECT PLUS LOANS (GRAD PLUS LOAN)

The U.S. Department of Education makes Direct PLUS Loans to eligible graduate or professional students through schools participating in the Direct Loan Program. To receive a grad PLUS loan, a student must be a graduate or professional student enrolled at least half-time in a program leading to a graduate or professional degree or certificate; not have an adverse credit history (unless the student meets certain additional eligibility requirements); and satisfy the general eligibility requirements for federal student aid. For additional information, students should contact the University’s Office of Financial Aid.
