Loans

UofL participates in the William D. Ford Direct Loan Program. In the Direct Loan Program, eligible students and parents borrow directly from the U.S. Department of Education.  Direct Loans include Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, Direct PLUS Loans, and Direct Consolidation Loans. You repay these loans directly to the U.S. Department of Education. For more information about the Federal Direct Loan Program, please visit the federal student aid website at U.S. Department of Education.

Students may also apply for a non-federal private/alternative student loan offered from a bank or lending institution.
