Stafford Loans
Please use the option that relates to your status:
Previous Borrowers
Previous Federal Stafford Loan borrowers have signed Master Promissory Note (MPN) and are not required to sign another MPN. Your signed Financial Aid Award letter is confirmation of acceptance of your loans. A disclosure statement will be sent to you indicating the loan amount approved. If you choose to change your lender you will be required to complete another MPN for the new lender.
First-time/Transfer Borrowers
First-time and new transfer Federal Stafford Loan borrowers must complete a two step process. The Master Promissory Note (MPN)is a note under which you may receive multiple Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans over a maximum ten year period.
Complete your Entrance Counseling through the steps provided and managed by the Business Office. Note: You will automatically be redirected to complete your MPN once your loan counseling is complete.
