Loan Disclosures

The University loan disclosure process must be completed prior to the disbursement of any University loan funds to your student account. Loan funds will be disbursed three business days following the completion of the disclosure requirements.

Terms

It is a federal requirement to complete disclosures for each semester you are awarded a University loan.
