Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS)
 
Plus Loans
 
This federal loan is for parents of dependent undergraduate students and is not based on financial need. This loan can help you (the parent) meet the costs of a college education. The decision to approve or deny the loan is based on the results of a credit check that is conducted by the lender (the U.S. Dept. of Ed.).
 
Who Is Eligible?
 
Parents, adoptive parents, and stepparents of dependent undergraduate students attending college at least half time are eligible for PLUS loans. Borrowers must be U.S. citizens or eligible residents. Loan approval is subject to credit criteria established by the U.S. Department of Education.
 
Borrowing Limits
 
Parent's may borrow up to the total annual cost of education, including educational fees, books, living and travel expenses, less any financial aid for which the student is eligible. The Student Financial Aid Office will determine your amount of loan eligibility.
