**Graduate students are not eligible for Pell Grants, but may be eligible for loans and work study, as well as scholarships and fellowships. Loan amounts vary for individual students; in general, graduate/professional students are eligible for up to $18,500 per academic year (this includes summer). Any outside aid (i.e. graduate assistantships, tuition waivers, scholarships, fellowships, etc.) may affect the amount of federal aid you receive each year.

**If you need to defer loans: visit http://www.dlservicer.ed.gov and click on forms. If you are enrolled in at least 6 hours during the fall/spring terms or 3 hours during the summer term you can apply or request an in-school deferment for pre-existing loans. Enrollment verification is handled by the Registrar’s Office in Hunt Hall.

**Total Loans: If you wish to know your aggregate loan amounts, please visit http://www.nslds.ed.gov and click on "Financial Aid Review"; read the terms of agreement and proceed. You will need your federal pin number to access this information. Pins can be obtained from http://www.pin.ed.gov.
