Step 2
Review and Accept

If you are unsure about whether to accept student loans that have been offered to you, we encourage you to determine if you have other financial sources available to cover the Cost of Attendance as outlined on your award. If you are a dependent student, you should speak to your parents to see if they have identified sources of funding to cover your college expenses. Keep in mind that if you accept loans now, you can always change your mind at a later date. We are happy to cancel loans with a simple email request. There are no obligations.
