Loans
Federal Stafford Loan
The primary means of financial aid for Graduate students at Jessup University are Unsubsidized Stafford loans. Unsubsidized Stafford loans are funded by the Department of Education and are borrowed in the student’s name.
| Amount: | $20,500 Per Academic Year |
| Eligibility: | Graduate students enrolled at least half-time per semester. A FAFSA must be completed for each year in which you wish to borrow |
| Interest Rate: | 5.28% for Unsubsidized Stafford Loans disbursed between July 1, 2021 and June 30, 2022
4.30% for Unsubsidized Stafford Loans disbursed between July 1, 2020 and June 30, 2021 |
| Repayment: | Typically begins 6 months after a student graduates, drops below half-time or withdraws from school, but specific lenders may have different repayment requirements. |
| Renewal: | Annually renewable once you complete the Master Promissory Note (MPN) and Entrance Counseling, and upon annual completion of the FAFSA. |
| Application: | FAFSA with WJU listed, Master Promissory Note and Entrance Counseling The Master Promissory Note and Entrance Counseling are two separate processes. BOTH must be completed online in order for the loans to be placed on your student account. |
| Note: | All Direct Loans have a Origination Fee of 1.057% taken from the gross amount of the loan. Federal regulation requires students to complete Exit Counseling within 30 days of graduating, dropping below half time or withdrawing from school. |
Who is Eligible?
In order to receive a Stafford loan, a student must be enrolled half-time, be in good standing with all previous student loans, meet Jessup University’s Satisfactory Academic Policy (SAP) Requirements, and be an eligible citizen or non-citizen of the United States. Since an Unsubsidized loan is not awarded based on financial need, the only step to receive the loan is to fill out a FAFSA with Jessup Listed (School Code 001281). Students who have not previously borrowed at Jessup University, would also need to complete Entrance Counseling and sign a Master Promissory Note (MPN), both of which can be completed at studentaid.gov.
Graduate PLUS Loan
| We want to stress the importance of being a smart borrower for Graduate school, and only borrowing what you really need. For those who can afford to pay a small amount out of pocket for school, it has a compounding effect on minimizing your overall student loan debt. For those who cannot afford to pay out of pocket, and need extra financial assistance, there is an option to borrow a Graduate PLUS loan. While there are no aggregate limits on a PLUS loan, you cannot borrow more than the cost of your attendance minus any other type of financial aid you receive. | |||||||||||||||

Alternative or Private Loans
| Alternative or Private Student Loans are credit-based loan for students who are enrolled in 6 or more units. | |
|---|---|
| Amount: | Up to the cost of attendance minus financial aid. |
| Eligibility: | Credit-based loan for students who are enrolled in 6 or more units. Borrower must be a US Citizen, eligible non-citizen, or an international student with a U.S. Citizen Cosigner. Both eligible non-citizens and international students need to have a current address in the United States. |
| Interest Rate: | Varies according to lender and borrower (and cosigner) credit history. |
| Repayment: | Begins 6 months after student graduates, drops below 6 units or withdraws from school. |
| Renewal: | Not renewable. Must apply yearly. |
| Application: | You are free to choose your own private lender. |
| Note: | Alternative or Private Student Loans are designed to supplement federal, state, and institutional financial aid. Borrowers must be credit worthy, many times requiring a co-signer. Loan programs may vary widely. Students should only consider obtaining an Alternative or Private Student Loan if they have maximized all Federal Stafford Loan options! |
