Federal Direct Stafford Loans are low interest loans for
students enrolled in a degree of certificate program to help pay for the
costs of post-secondary education. To participate, the student
must submit a completed FAFSA, complete an entrance interview every year and a master promissory note. The school will disburses funds to the students account 10 days after the start of class. Both subsidized and unsubsidized
loans are available. Loan amounts are determined by need and

months after the student either graduates or drops below half-time (6
units per semester) enrollment.
