After completing the Federal Perkins MPN, you must also complete pre-loan counseling if this is your first Perkins Loan.
To receive a PLUS loan you accepted on your aid offer, your parents must complete and submit a UCSC Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students Application Form. After your parent completes the PLUS application, they will also need to do a Federal Direct Loan Master Promissory Note.
Use our Budget Worksheet to determine if you will receive a refund after UCSC fee and housing charges are paid with financial aid. If you think you will receive a refund, you may sign up with Student Business Services for direct deposit to your personal checking or savings account. Otherwise, aid refunds owed to you will be paid via check and mailed to your local address. | ||||
