In order to apply for a loan you will need to complete a Direct Loan MPN. Students are strongly encouraged to make an electronic application at Student Loans website. If you would prefer a paper MPN you will need to request one by contacting COD Applicant Services on 1-800-557-7394.
An MPN will need to be completed for each type of loan you wish to borrow:
- Direct Loan Subsidized/Unsubsidized
- PLUS
NB. MPNs are only valid for one academic year at foreign schools.
Print a copy of your MPN. The MPN is a binding legal document between you and the U.S. Department of Education that outlines the terms of your loan. You should keep a copy for your own personal reference and in order forward a copy to the University.
If appling for a private loan (Sallie Mae/Navient Smart Loan), once you have completed the on-line application you will be able to obtain a copy of your e-signed Promissory Note
