What is a Parent PLUS Loan? |

dependent undergraduate student enrolled at
least half time. |

How much can my Parents borrow?

The yearly limit on a PLUS Loan is equal
to your cost of education minus any other
financial aid you receive. |

| Q. |
When do my parents begin repaying
a PLUS Loan? |

Generally, repayment begins within 60 days
after the final loan
disbursement for the academic year. There

begins to accumulate at the time the first
disbursement is made. Your parents may request
in-school deferment while you are in school. |
