LOANS FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS
Graduate students in the School of Education may pursue financial support in the form of educational loans.
If this is your first graduate degree, or if you earned a graduate or professional degree unrelated to K-12 education, you may consider pursuing federal direct student loans, graduate PLUS loans, or private education loans.
Graduate students who have already earned a master's degree related to K-12 education may utilize private education loans, which often have interest rates and repayment options that are as competitive or perhaps even better than the federal loans.
- Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans
-
Qualifying students can borrow up to $20,500 in Direct Student loans per academic year. Students must apply through the FAFSA annually. To qualify for a loan, you must be enrolled at least half time: for first time MAEd students, this equates to at least three credit hours per term. View more information on federal direct student loans.
- Federal Graduate and Professional Student Plus Loans
-
In addition to federal direct student loans, first time MAEd students may also be eligible for the Federal Graduate and Professional Student PLUS Loan Program. Students must apply through the FAFSA annually and have non-adverse credit.
- Private Education Loans
-
Private education loans are a financing option for students who choose to not utilize federal loans or do not qualify for the federal loans. The FAFSA is not required to pursue these loans, but a credit check is typically required. Due to the wide-variety of private education loan offerings it is advised that you should compare multiple lenders prior to making your decision. To assist with this process, Baldwin Wallace offers resources and online comparison tools for selecting and applying for a private education loan.
