US Federal Student Loans are only available for the Four-Year DVM portion of all dual degrees. Students are not eligible for US Federal Loans if enrolled in courses outside of Grenada or the US at any point during the DVM program and for any subsequent enrollment thereafter.

The consists of the Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan and Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan. The maximum loan amount for which a student is eligible may not exceed the (as defined by 澳门六合开奖结果’s University) less any other financial aid received for the academic period in which the student is enrolled. Eligible students can borrow up to $20,500 per academic year from the Federal Direct Unsubsidized loan not to exceed an overall aggregate amount borrowed of $138,500. The Federal Direct Graduate PLUS loan program is used to bridge the gap between the Unsubsidized Loans and the remaining cost of attendance. Students must not have an adverse credit history in order to qualify for a Federal Direct Graduate PLUS loan. The Direct PLUS loan does not have an aggregate limit.

Students may choose to pay the interest while attending school. If allowed to accrue, interest will be capitalized (added to the principal balance) at the beginning of the repayment period. The interest rate for all Unsubsidized loans with a first disbursement on or after July 1, 2024 is fixed at 8.083%. The interest rate for all Grad PLUS loans with a first disbursement on or after July 1, 2024 is fixed at 9.083%. The student will also be required to pay a pre-disbursement loan origination fee on the amount borrowed. Effective October 1, 2021 the fee will be 1.057% on Unsubsidized loans and 4.228% on Direct PLUS loans. These fees will be deducted from the amount borrowed and will be reflected in the disbursements issued to the student鈥檚 account.

Loans are typically processed for an academic year and are disbursed in two installments. Disbursements typically occur 10 days before the start of an academic term. For example, if a student requests a $20,500 Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan, the Department of Education will release half the requested amount, less loan fees, any applicable fees for the first term of the academic year, and release the second half of the approved amount (less fees) 10 days before the start of the second term. Loan funds are disbursed to the student’s account and if a credit balance is created, the credit will be refunded to the student by check or direct deposit, typically within 5 business days.

Under the Direct Unsubsidized and Graduate PLUS loan programs, the student is responsible for all accruing interest and may choose to repay the interest while in school or defer it until repayment begins. Upon graduation, a grace period is applied automatically to your Federal Direct loans. The grace period is a one time 6-month period during which no payments are required, although interest will continue to accrue on these loans. If a student ceases to be enrolled at least half-time (withdraws or takes a leave of absence), the 6-month grace period would apply in most circumstances. Students who withdraw, drop below five (5) credits or graduate must complete if they have received any Federal Loans. The Exit Counseling will provide you with your federal loan history and will inform you of your repayment options.

Repayment on these loans begins 6 months after the student ceases to be enrolled at least half-time. The amount of your monthly repayment is calculated based upon the total amount that you have borrowed, as well as the repayment plan that you choose.

Private Educational Loans

Private educational lenders in the United States offer students at 澳门六合开奖结果’s University alternate loans. US Students can apply for these loans to meet all or part of their cost of attendance. Some lenders may also offer private loan programs for parents, guardians, sponsors, or other individuals who wish to borrow on behalf of the student to help fund their education. These private loan programs are all credit-based and are offered only to borrowers who have a satisfactory credit history as determined by the lender. The loans may have a fixed or variable interest rate that is tied to an index, such as LIBOR or PRIME, plus a margin. The interest rates and fees you pay on a private student loan are based on your credit score and the credit score of your cosigner, if applicable. These loans have repayment terms that begin following graduation or withdrawal from school and may be able to be extended up to 25 years.
