Loan Options
Federal Loan Programs
For detailed information on the Federal Direct Student Loans, please visit www.studentaid.gov. If you’ve been notified that you are eligible for the Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized Student Loans on your Financial Aid Award Letter and plan to borrow these loans, please complete the Entrance Counseling AND Loan Agreement (MPN) at www.studentaid.gov. If you do not wish to borrow the loans, please email our office at finaid@louisburg.edu to decline those loans.
Federal Direct PLUS Loans
The Parent PLUS Loan is a financing option available for parents to cover the remaining
balance due for the year. For details on the PLUS Loan, please visit www.studentaid.gov. If the parent is approved and wishes to borrow enough to cover the balance, please
be sure to choose the "maximum" amount on the application. If the parent is denied
the PLUS Loan, the student becomes eligible for an additional Unsubsidized Loan.
Alternative Loans
Private Student Loans
We strongly recommend that you consider borrowing from the Federal Direct Loan program before applying for a private student loan due to the Department of Education's low interest rates and various repayment options. If you still need to borrow additional loans, a private loan may be an option for you. Please be aware that if you do not have much credit established, a lender will likely require you to have a cosigner.
