Parent Loans

Parent PLUS Loan



A PLUS is a federal loan for parents and stepparents of dependent undergraduate students, and graduate students attending school at least half time.  The Federal PLUS lets parents borrow money to cover any costs not already covered by the student's financial aid package, up to the full cost of attendance. We strongly suggest that you read the detailed information about the Parent Plus before you apply.



Below, we have provided you with two charts, 2008-2009 Cost of Education and Calculating the Bill. This information will help you determine what you owe the accounting office and what you may be eligible for in a PLUS loan.
