Most students start out with a Federal Stafford Loan, a program federally regulated and guaranteed. Typically, federal loan limits are not enough to cover the full cost of an education. Therefore, you can supplement it with other loan products that may require separate applications.
Federal Loans
Affordable Stafford Loan The federal government backs loans for both undergraduate and graduate students who are enrolled at least half-time in a degree program at an eligible school.
Before you apply for the Stafford Loan, you must fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This is a Federal document that can be completed online, at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Then fill out an application for the Stafford Loan.
