Getting a college degree is a worthwhile goal. Borrowing to pay for an education is an important personal and family decision. Higher education is expensive but worth the investment of time, effort, and money. Research shows that higher education can significantly increase what an individual earns over a lifetime. That’s why One Source FCU offers Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) loans. If you or another family member plans to attend a university, technical college, or any specialized training program, One Source FCU can help you with the funding you need to pursue your dreams.
Types of Loans
Subsidized
Stafford
Loan -
This is a need based Federal Student Loan for Undergraduate and Graduate Students. The Federal Government pays the interest on these loans during school, the grace period and any authorized deferment periods. Repayment begins after a drop in enrollment below part-time and following a six month grace period. The minimum monthly payment is $50.00. Early principal and interest payments can be made without forcing the loan into repayment.
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan -
This is a non-need based Federal Student Loan for Graduate, Independent Students (as defined by the Federal Government) and Undergraduate Students whose parents have been denied a Parent PLUS Loan. Interest accumulates during school, the grace period and any authorized deferment periods. Repayment begins after a drop in enrollment below part-time and following a six month grace period. The minimum monthly payment is $50.00. Early principal and interest payments can be made without forcing the loan into repayment.
Parent PLUS & Graduate/Professional PLUS Loan
These are credit-worthy Federal Student Loans for Parents of Undergraduate Students and for Graduate/Professional Students allowing applicants to borrower up to the cost of attendance minus other aid received. Repayment begins 60 days after the full loan disbursement is made. Deferment options may be available. Parents PLUS and Grad PLUS loans will require applicants to complete a pre-approval application. A Parent PLUS denial is required for a Dependent Undergraduate to receive an Unsubsidized Loan.
