Entrance Loan Counseling, Authorization Statement and Loan Comparison and Pre Approval

All students who borrow a Federal Stafford loan must complete Entrance Counseling.  All applicants are required to complete a Student Authorization Statement.  If you are a dependent student, your parent must also complete the Parent Authorization Statement.

Choosing a lender is an important decision, one that will affect you for the life of your loan.  If you have prior loans we recommend you remain with the same lender.  If you have no prior Stafford Loans, we recommend you borrow from one of the lenders listed
