Families should consider what they can afford to pay out of pocket prior to borrowing the remaining educational costs. This helps minimize the debt burden on students and parents. The University offers a payment plan that consists of 5 monthly payments per semester.

Payment Plans

There are several high quality parent loan products from which to choose, including the federal Direct PLUS Loan for parents. Private parent and student loans, discussed below, using a cosigner with good to excellent credit can result in fixed and variable rates lower than the federal Direct PLUS Loan. Families are encouraged to compare attributes of any loans to pick the one that is right for them.

Plan ahead; apply early for any parent or student loans to give yourself time to resolve any issues.

Federal Direct PLUS Loan for Parents

The website for completing the Direct PLUS Loan application and simultaneously signing the Master Promissory Note is .

With this loan option, parents of dependent undergraduate students may borrow up to the cost of attendance, minus any other financial aid resources. The current interest rate for the PLUS Loan is a fixed 9.08%, and eligibility depends on a modest credit check. It is important to account for a 4.228% origination fee that the government withholds upon loan disbursement. Increase the requested amount by at least 4.3% in order to cover any anticipated balance. Repayment begins 60 days after the loan is disbursed, but parents can choose to defer repayment until 6 months after the student departs school. Be aware that deferring payments increases the total cost of the loan.

If the parent's application is denied, they can add an endorser who does not have an adverse credit history. If a PLUS application stays denied, the student is eligible to borrow an additional $4,000-$5,000 through the Direct Unsubsidized Loan by completing a form at the Financial Aid Office.

Note: The University requires a completed FAFSA in order to secure a PLUS loan.

The website for completing the Direct Grad PLUS Loan application and simultaneously signing the Master Promissory Note is .

With this loan option, graduate and professional students may borrow up to the cost of attendance, minus any other financial aid resources. The current interest rate for the PLUS Loan is a fixed 9.08%, and eligibility depends on a modest credit check. It is important to account for a 4.228% origination fee that the government withholds upon loan disbursement. Increase the requested amount by at least 4.3% in order to cover any anticipated balance. You’ll receive an automatic deferment while you’re enrolled in school at least half time, and for an additional six months after you graduate, leave school, or drop below half-time enrollment. You don’t have to start making payments until after this deferment period ends.

If you have an adverse credit history, you may still receive a Grad PLUS loan by either obtaining an endorser who does not have an adverse credit history or documenting to the satisfaction of the U.S. Department of Education that there are extenuating circumstances relating to your adverse credit history.

There are many high quality student loan products from which to choose. The University does not endorse any preferred lender. Student loans using a cosigner with good to excellent credit can result in fixed and variable rates lower than the federal Direct PLUS Loan for parents or the federal Direct PLUS Loan for Graduate or Professional Students. Payments are deferrable until after graduation, but deferring payments does raise the cost as interest accrues. Many loans give an option for immediate repayment of principal and interest, or just interest. Freshmen are almost always required to use a cosigner, while all others may be eligible without one. However, the cost of the loan is always lower with a cosigner.

The private loan application process requires several e-signed disclosure confirmations, and the interval from application to disbursement takes several weeks. For the "self-certification" step, you will need to utilize the "Cost of Attendance" and "Total Financial Aid" figures found on the Offer Letter enclosure. The "Cost of Attendance" is also found on our website. 

While we do not make private educational loan recommendations, we do guide families toward a website provided by , a non-profit organization that provides a lender-neutral comparison tool for students and parents, offering unbiased information on private educational loans, lenders, rates, and fees. We also suggest that borrowers pay special attention to your state’s loan programs which can often provide better terms, conditions, fees, and interest rates. Many loan sites provide repayment calculators with various options from which to choose. These can be very helpful when deciding what type of loan and repayment is best for your family.
