Third Party Access

According to the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), students in higher education institutions are considered to be adults with exclusive rights over their student records. Students are the only ones who can authorize the release of information from their student records, including their financial records via Third Party Access.

Loan Origination Calculator Tool

Each Direct Loan is subject to an origination fee by the Department of Education. The Origination fee is a percentage of the total amount you will be borrowing and deducted proportionately from each disbursement of your loan. We have constructed this calculator so that you can better understand the origination fee as it will affect the final disbursement amount of your loan.
