Initial Loan Counseling for Student Borrowers

Federal Direct Loans

Students borrowing Federal Direct Loans need to complete Entrance Counseling.  The goal of entrance counseling is to help you understand what it means to take out a federal student loan, how to manage your educational expenses and your rights and responsibilities as a borrower. 

Students may also complete the Annual Student Loan Acknowledgment each year to acknowledge that you understand your responsibility to repay the loan, how much you owe and how much is available to borrow.
