2023/24 Information

Federal Direct Loans are financed by the U.S. Department of Education and assist students with the cost of their studies. Undergraduate students may be eligible for the Subsidized Loan (no interest while in school), Unsubsidized Loan (interest accrues while in school) and the Parent PLUS Loan for parent borrowers. For students in a postgraduate program you have the option of the Unsubsidized Loan and Graduate PLUS Loan. Unfortunately, students studying at a foreign school such as Imperial College London are not eligible for need-based grants such as the Pell Grant. The first step is to complete the Department of Education’s 2023-24 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The School Code for Imperial College London is G11567.

In addition to federal loans you may also wish to explore a private loan with Sallie Mae or Earnest.
