University of Florida Student LoansThe University of Florida draws upon many alumni-supported loan funds for its student loan programs. As the largest school in the Florida University system, it has the money available to help students to afford school.
The short-term loans are student loans without cosigner; the long-term loans do require a cosigner. Students cannot borrow an institutional loan to pay tuition or fees from the year before. There is no grace period for a short-term loan; the long-term loans usually have 6 months as their grace period. These are fixed-rate loans; your interest rate will not change over the course of the loan. Exit interviews are required for long-term loans; short-term loans do not require them. The money that is repaid goes directly into the loan fund that it was borrowed from. (Many UF loans are named after the private donor who donated the funds.) It is then redistributed to current students as new loans. To apply for one of these loans, visit the University's website. 
These loans are comparable to most private student loans. As with all private loans, it is impossible to know exactly what your terms will be on a long-term loan, until you apply. return from University of Florida loans to university student loans return from University of Florida loans to home |
