Federal Perkins Loan

A 5 percent fixed interest Federal loan administered by the University. Repayment starts nine months following graduation, a student’s withdrawal from school, or when a student drops to less than half-time enrollment. Repayment may be extended over a ten-year period. Principal and interest are deferred while a student is enrolled at least half-time.
