students?<\/p><p>All notices are sent via the Student Portal, (i.e.: name of student@MYHamptonu.edu). Students must access the HamptonU Experience via: <a href=\"http:\/\/experience.hamptonu.edu\">experience.hamptonu.edu<\/a>\u00a0Consequently, Students can check their financial aid status, to include, but not limited to: missing items, awards, account balances, class registration, etc. Students should check their status, periodically, especially, prior to the end of each academic semester.<\/p><\/li><li><p>How do I determine if my child is financially cleared to move into their room and start classes?<\/p><p>You must have <strong>approved financial aid in an amount equal to or greater than your child&#8217;s <br \/>billable expenses<\/strong>. <strong>In addition, you must receive a financial clearance notice from the Office of Student Accounts, not the Office of Financial Aid.<\/strong> The Office of Student Accounts is solely responsible for sending financial clearance notices, not the Office of Financial Aid. Please be sure to contact the Office of Student Accounts for questions related to financial clearance (1-800-624-3327).<\/p><\/li><li><p>Is accepting the PLUS Loan the same as becoming approved?<\/p><p>No. Accepting the PLUS Loan is the first step, followed by completing a credit check, and then signing the master promissory note (MPN).<\/p><\/li><li><p>What is the interest rate and fee on new loans first disbursed on or after <strong>July 1, 2021<\/strong>?<\/p><table><tbody><tr><th>Type<\/th><th>Parent PLUS Interest<\/th><th>Fees<\/th><th>Grad Interest<\/th><th>Fees<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>PLUS<\/td><td>6.28%<\/td><td>4.228%<\/td><td>6.28%<\/td><td>4.228%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/li><li><p>What are the eligibility requirements for the PLUS Loan?<\/p><p>PLUS Loan applicants must meet the general eligibility requirements for federal student aid. If a parent is borrowing on behalf of a dependent undergraduate student, the student must also meet these general eligibility requirements. For example, the PLUS applicant and the student must:<\/p><ul><li>Be a United States citizen or eligible noncitizen,<\/li><li>Not be in default on a federal student loan, and<\/li><li>Not owe a refund on a federal education grant<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><p>Are there any other requirements for the PLUS Loan eligibility?<\/p><p>A PLUS Loan applicant should not have an adverse credit history. (A credit check will be conducted.) If a PLUS Loan applicant does have an adverse credit history, he or she might still be able to receive a loan by documenting existing extenuating circumstances or by obtaining an endorser who does not have an adverse credit history. An endorser is someone who agrees to repay the loan if the borrower fails to do so.<\/p><\/li><li><p>Must I complete the FAFSA each year in order to apply for the PLUS Loan?<\/p><p>Yes. Student eligibility regulations require for parents to complete the FAFSA each year in order to be considered for the PLUS.\u00a0<a style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/studentaid.gov\/plus-app\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/studentaid.gov\/plus-app\/<\/a><\/p><\/li><li><p>What is the process for the PLUS loan?<\/p><p>Accept the loan on the HamptonU Experience and complete the PLUS credit application and <br \/>master promissory note (MPN) on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/studentaid.gov\/\"> www.studentaid.gov<\/a><\/p><\/li><li><p>When does repayment begin?<\/p><p>Generally, the PLUS loan goes into repayment 60 days after the final disbursement, unless the borrower requests a deferment with the U.S. Department of Education (or Servicers).<\/p><\/li><li><p>What options are available if the PLUS loan is denied?<\/p><p>Borrowers can seek an appeal with U.S. Department of Education, secure a credit worthy endorser, or student may qualify for additional unsubsidized and needs to submit request in writing. After a PLUS Loan is denied, you should first review the information regarding the loan sent to you from Direct Loans. If you have the option to appeal or to get an endorser, you may choose to do so at this time. If the initial denial remains, the student may submit a written request for an additional unsubsidized loan in the amount of $4,000 or $5,000 depending on the number of credit hours they have on record. If there is still a remaining balance, the parent may choose a private loan or contact our Business Office regarding the Special Deferred Payment Plan.<\/p><p>If you have been denied the Parent (or Graduate) PLUS Loan due to adverse credit history, you may be able to request reconsideration of the denial decision. Reconsideration may be an option if you have received communication from the U.S. Department of Education along with the denial decision stating this option is available to you. If you have received this communication, you should contact the Student Loan Support Center at 1-800-557-7394 to request reconsideration.<\/p><\/li><li><p>Why am I unable to see if my PLUS Loan was approved after completing the Direct PLUS Master Promissory Note (MPN)?<\/p><p>Merely completing the MPN does not automatically place the PLUS Loan in approved status.

The full procedure for applying for the PLUS loan consists of a credit check and a completed MPN.<\/p><\/li><li><p>Do I have to borrow the full amount offered?<\/p><p><strong>No. Should you require a lesser amount, please contact the Financial Aid Office. However, for all direct, institutional billing, please contact the Office of Student Accounts.<\/strong><\/p><\/li><li><p>What if I decide to cancel the loan?<\/p><p>We prefer that you put your cancellation request in writing and strongly recommend for you to submit to it us prior to the start of classes.<\/p><\/li><li><p>What is the best way to contact the Office of Financial Aid?<\/p><p>Please use our <a href=\"https:\/\/home.hamptonu.edu\/financialaid\/contact\/\">contact form<\/a>.<\/p><\/li><li><p>When should my child and I complete the FAFSA?<\/p><p>Students and parents need to complete the FAFSA after January 2nd each academic year.<\/p><\/li><li><p>How often should my child check his HamptonU Experience Financial Aid Planning account online?<\/p><p>Once given access, students should check their Financial Aid Planning account on the HamptonU Experience quite frequently to ensure there are no unmet requirements. At a minimum, students should check before the beginning and before the end of each semester enrolled.<\/p><\/li><li><p>How often should my child and I review the Financial Aid Office&#8217;s webpage?<\/p><p>Students and parents need to review the Financial Aid webpage throughout each academic year for all necessary information.
