All borrowers must complete:
- loan entrance counseling
- direct loan master promissory note
- be enrolled in an eligible program (enrollment less than full time could result in loan amount adjustments or cancellations). Enrollment/attendance and eligibility will be verified before any loan disbursements are scheduled for release in the disbursement process. This verification process will begin after the add/drop period of each semester. Depending on the volume, the final review may take several weeks to complete.
