Origination fees are bank fees charged for the loan processing of Stafford and Plus loans. The fees can range from 0% to 5% of the total loan amount. Check with your lender regarding these fees. Origination fees are deducted from the total loan amount before the loan is disbursed to the college. You will receive the total loan amount requested less origination fees.
