The Federal Stafford Form
To apply for a Federal Stafford Loan, you must use the Master Promissory Note (MPN) for Federal Stafford Loans (Subsidized/Unsubsidized). You may obtain a list of lenders and MPN from the school. Our Student Financial Services Department will determine how large a loan you are eligible for after reviewing your completed FAFSA form. After you completely fill out the MPN, send it with your other forms to Student Financial Services at the school. If you have a valid MPN on file with a lender, please notify us and we will verify that it can be used at our school. You may also complete a MPN over the Internet.

The Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (FPLUS)
Application Form
An eligible parent qualifies for FPLUS Loans while a dependent son or daughter attends school. To apply for a FPLUS Loan, your parent (only one need apply) must use the combined application and Promissory Note for Federal Parent Loans. You may obtain an application and list of lenders from the school. Student Financial Services will recommend an amount based on eligibility and the amount needed to pay for school. Your parent completes the Borrower section of the form and you, the student, complete the Student section. After you fill out the PLUS Loan application form send it along with your other forms to Student Financial Services at the school. (Your copy of the Application and Promissory Note will be returned to you).

Carefully read the instructions and general information before you complete the form.

Print legibly and sign where required.

Complete the Student and Borrower sections of the form. Other sections are completed by the lender and the school.

List your parents first, then list brothers, sisters, and relatives who are adults and live on their own in the section for references. You may also include adult friends. The two references must have separate and complete addresses.

If you don't have a driver's license, complete this section with "none."

The school participates in Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). To avoid delays and eliminate paperwork, we strongly recommend that you answer "yes" to the electronic transfer of loan monies to your student account.

For your loan period, use the first month and the year of the first quarter in your academic year. Then use the last month and the year of your third quarter.

Read the Promissory Note before you sign it. It is a legal document requiring you to pay back the money you borrow.
