Federal Loans All student loan borrowers are encouraged to educate themselves on proper loan management prior to applying for loans. Students should consider all aspects of debt management prior to borrowing including, but not limited to: (1) average anticipated salaries, (2) recommended debt-to-income ratios, (3) estimated monthly payments, (4) various repayment plan options. Though our office will advocate for the use of student loans in order to help meet any unmet financial need, we encourage all students to borrow cautiously. Borrowers are encouraged to regularly check their federal student loan balances at https://nslds.ed.gov/nslds/nslds_SA/ to ensure up-to-date awareness and accuracy of their loan details. Direct Unsubsidized Loans Direct Unsubsidized Loans are the primary federal loan type currently available for graduate-level students. The interest rate is a variable-fixed rate; the rate is tied to national financial markets and is recalculated each summer based on current rates. The current rate at the time a loan is taken out will be locked in for the life of that loan. For up-to-date interest rate information, visit https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/types/loans/subsidized-unsubsidized#interest-rates. The $20,500 annual limit for Direct Unsubsidized Loans remains unchanged.
