Federal Stafford Loans: allows students to borrow money for college tuition and expenses. Subsidized Stafford Loans are awarded to eligible students, and no interest accrues while the student is enrolled at least half time. Unsubsidized loans are given to students who do not meet the need-based criteria, and interest payments accrue while the student is in school. First year students can borrow up to $3,500, second-year students $4,500, third- and fourth-year students $5,500. The interest rate is variable, not to exceed 8.25% over the life of the loan. You are expected to begin repayment six months after graduation, withdrawal from school, or if your attendance should drop below half time.
