Breathe!  It doesn’t all have to be decided at once, and we’ll be here to work with you on the details throughout the summer months. Start by using this Budget Worksheet to get a feel for how loans or a payment plan might fit into the picture […and don’t forget that whole breathing thing].

Start looking into loan information and call us with your questions. Use the resources below to learn everything you (n)ever wanted to know about student and parent education loans:

1. Learn the answers to some of the most common borrower concerns;
2. Compare the different types of loans available, and understand their differences;
3. Apply for Loans online when you’re ready. Ideally, you’ll want to do this in advance of the mid-July billing statement so that your account statement reflects your loans as credits.

Students will receive an Outside Scholarship Declaration form via email. Use this to let us know about any outside/private scholarships you think you may receive. If the new information causes a change in your financial aid award (decreased loans, etc.) we’ll make the changes for you and send you a revised award letter. This ensures a more accurate billing statement in July, when you’ll see your scholarships listed as pending credits on your student account (as opposed to becoming part of a balance due).

Students who participate in the Texas Tomorrow Fund should fax their TTF ID card to our Business Office at (512) 863-5788.

All students planning to participate in the Payment Plan should be enrolled by June 1.

Unless you declined your loans on the Financial Aid Reply Letter, you’ll receive a Loan Instruction email directing you to move forward with the loan process for whichever loans you’ve decided on.  If you’re unsure about your loan status or have questions about the process, please contact our office. Use this link if you’re ready to process your loans now.
