International students who are not eligible for these forms of aid may wish to pursue assistantships and payment plans to finance their graduate studies.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Loans<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan<\/strong><br \/>\nThis loan is available to eligible degree and certificate seeking students who will be enrolled at least half time. Maximum annual eligibility is $20,500 and interest accrues on this loan while you are in school. You must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility, which is based on cost of attendance, other aid, received, and other factors. Students who will work in a full-time public service job may qualify for the <a href=\"https:\/\/studentaid.ed.gov\/sa\/repay-loans\/forgiveness-cancellation\/public-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Public Service Loan Forgiveness program<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h2><strong>How to Apply:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The procedure to apply for financial assistance is not the same for every type of aid. Financial aid applications will be considered at any point during the school year; however, early application is recommended.<\/p>\n<p>Students seeking financial aid through the Federal Stafford Loan program, Federal Work-Study, or any program that requires the filing of a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (<a href=\"https:\/\/fafsa.ed.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FAFSA<\/a>) should follow these steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Step 1: Complete a <a href=\"https:\/\/fafsa.ed.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)<\/a>. The FAFSA must be completed by both new and currently enrolled graduate students for each year they seek financial aid. The information is analyzed and a report sent to the university on the estimated contribution expected from the family or the self-supporting student.<\/li>\n<li>Step 2: On the FAFSA, indicate Marymount as an institution to receive a report. Also, fill in Marymount University&#8217;s Title IV code number: <strong>003724<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Step 3: In two to three weeks, you will receive a federal Student Aid Report (SAR). If this report indicates that you have been selected for a process called verification, you must then submit signed copies of your most current Federal Tax Return.<\/li>\n<li>Step 4: If you are an eligible Virginia resident planning to enroll in a graduate health professions program on a full-time basis, submit the VTAG Application by July 31.
