Federal Parent Loan for Undergrad Students (PLUS)

This program covers the cost of attendance that traditional forms of financial aid do not cover. By capturing any remaining balance in affordable fixed monthly payments, the PLUS loan program has assisted thousands of parents nationwide with helping make education affordable. During or before completing the FAFSA, parents may become pre-approved for the PLUS loan through discussions with a financial aid staff member. For those with poor credit, the University strongly recommends applying with a co-signer. Please note, that most financial institutions will allow a co-signer to apply, and, later, be lifted off the loan after a successful payment history has been established. For details, check with the lender.
