Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan

are non-need-based loans and are available to eligible graduate students. Repayment of principal is postponed while the student is in school and during a six-month grace period after the student leaves school or drops below half-time status. The interest on Unsubsidized Direct Loans while the student is in school is the borrower's responsibility to repay. These loans are made by a lender, such as a bank, credit union or savings and loan association; are insured by a state or nonprofit guarantee agency; and are reinsured by the federal government. Additionally, these loans:

• Are available to students who do not qualify, in whole or in part, for Subsidized Stafford Loans.
• Have terms that are the same as the terms for subsidized loans, except that the federal government does not pay any interest on the borrower's behalf.
• May either accrue interest while the student is in school and then be added to the loan balance, or the borrower may begin making interest payments after the first loan check is disbursed.
• Accrue interest during the borrower's grace period and during authorized periods of deferment of repayment.

Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan

allow graduate students to borrow funds up to the student's cost of attendance.

Private/Alternative Education Loans

Private Education Loans are not state, federal or institutional programs. Instead, they are loan programs specifically tailored for educational expenses by private lenders. Since these programs are created by the lenders themselves, there are often different terms and conditions for receiving them. Interest rates, fees and maximum loan amounts are among the many factors that may vary from lender to lender. We strongly encourage students to borrow first from the federal college loan programs. Through a student survey process, we developed a , allowing our students to compare private alternative education loan lenders.

The primary funding source for graduate students is through federal student loan programs. While Webster does offer a limited number of scholarships, we encourage interested graduate students to utilize other funding sources, which offer available graduate scholarships.
