Student Loans

Student Loans
On March 30, 2010, President Obama signed into law a bill that ends the FFEL Program effective July 1, 2010.

All Stafford, PLUS, and Graduate PLUS loans will be funded through the federal government's Direct Loan Program.

For questions regarding who holds or services your existing federal student loan(s), please access the National Student Loan Database, which is a Department of Education central database for student aid.

We look forward to serving you with our other student-friendly products and services. Best of luck to you in the upcoming school year.
