During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the University issued new loans to students under the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (FDLP). The loan program includes subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford Loans and Parents' Loans for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) for graduate and professional students. The value of loans issued for the FDLP is based on disbursed amounts. The undergraduate PLUS loans are applied first to students' tuition and fees, and any remining balance is disbursed directly to parent or, with the parents' permission, to the student. In addition, the University participates in the Federal Perkins Loan Program through the Department of Education and the Nurse Faculty Loan Program through the Department of Health and Human Services. These loan programs are directly administered by the University and are considered revolving loan programs where collections received on past loans, including interest, and new funds received from federal agencies are loaned out to current students. For both of these programs, the beginning of year balance and loans made during the year are disclosed in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. The balance of loans outstanding for the Federal Perkins Loan Program as of June 30, 2022 amounts to $2,995,545.
