Federal loan rules have changed!

Due to changes from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, federal student loan rules have changed for new loans made on or after July 1, 2026.

In summary:

  • Your student loan eligibility will now be based on your enrollment (i.e. full-time, part-time)
  • Withdrawing from classes can reduce your loan eligibility in a current or future term.
  • Eligibility for Graduate and Parent PLUS loans has changed significantly. For information on those changes, visit here.
