TITLE IV FUNDING
Alamo City Barber College is approved as an eligible institution by the U. S. Department of Education to participate in Title IV Grant and Loan programs. The packaging of financial assistance is determined in accordance with guidelines established by the United States Department of Education.
A variety of Financial Aid assistance programs are available to qualified students. They are as follows:
- Federal Pell Grant: Intended to be the basis of the financial aid package and may be combined with other aid to meet the full cost of attendance. The Federal Pell Grant is a need based aid program in which an eligible recipient does not have to repay the funds received.
FEDERAL DIRECT LOAN PROGRAMS:
These are low interest loans for undergraduate and graduate students made available through the Federal Government. Federal Direct Loan Programs include the Federal Direct Subsidized, Federal Direct Unsubsidized and Federal Direct Plus loans. There are grade level progressions and loan limits used for the administration of these loans. Additionally, these loans are made through the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program, which is administered by the United States Department of Education. A description of the programs is prescribed below.
- Federal Direct Subsidized Loan: This is a need-based-loan for which the Federal government subsidizes the interest until repayment begins and during any period of deferment. This is a loan and recipients must begin making payments at the end of their six-month grace period.
- Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan: This is a non-need-based loan for which the Federal Government does not pay the interest subsidy. Interest accrues during all periods. The recipient has the option to pay the interest or to defer payment of the interest for the grace period. This is known as capitalization. This is a loan and recipients must begin making payments at the end of their six-month grace period.
- Federal Direct Plus Loan: This loan is available to parents of dependent undergraduate students to help pay for the cost of the dependent’s education. Borrowers of PLUS Loans are required to undergo a credit check by the lending institution. The definition of a “parent” for PLUS Loan eligibility is a student’s biological, adoptive or step-parent in the event that person’s income would have been taken into consideration when calculating the student’s expected family contribution (EFC). Interest is charged during all periods.
