A Parent\u00a0PLUS Loan is a loan offered to parents of students enrolled at least half time in eligible programs at participating and eligible post-secondary institutions. It\u2019s designed for students who can\u2019t afford to pay for school and whose parents can\u2019t afford to contribute to those remaining costs. The loan is geared to allow parents to help fill the gap when additional funds are needed after scholarships, grants, and other student loans.<\/p>\n

Under the Parent PLUS loan the federal government is the lender, which means the loan is administered by one of the servicing companies contracted by the Department of Education.<\/p>\n
