Federal and State Aid

• Federal Subsidized Direct Loan: This low-interest rate federal loan is available for qualified students. Repayment (principal and interest) is deferred until six months after a student graduates, withdraws, or drops below half-time status (three credits).
• Federal Unsubsidized Direct Loan: This low-interest rate federal loan has the same terms and conditions as the Federal Subsidized Direct Loan except that the borrower is responsible for interest that accrues while in school. Students may borrow additional amounts each academic year, if need permits.
