News and Announcements

On Wednesday May 7 2008, President George W. Bush signed legislation that increased the loan limits for undergraduate students. Effective for the 2008-09 school year, students now may borrow an additional $2,000 from the unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan program. If you want to borrow additional unsubsidized funds based on the new loan limits, please print and complete a new 2008-09 Federal Stafford Loan Instruction and Amount Request Form, add this additional amount to the base amount, indicate the total amount on step two, and be sure to check the unsubsidized box on step three.
