To be eligible for a Subsidized/Unsubsidized Loan, you must be:

• accepted and matriculated in a degree granting program
• enrolled at least half-time
• making satisfactory academic progress

If your registration status is less than half-time, but you are involved in other degree requirements (dissertation, comprehensive exam preparation, etc.) with a credit equivalency that will raise your enrollment to at least half-time, you must file an enrollment certification form with your school or department. This certification must be processed by Academic Records before you can receive loan proceeds.

Contact your Graduate School Admission Office for additional information about University based scholarships and fellowships.

Withdrawing from courses may affect your Stafford Loan eligibility.
