Can I borrow a federal loan to cover the cost of a computer?
We can consider adding the cost of a computer to your cost of education once during your academic career. If you have not yet taken advantage of this program, follow the standard steps to apply for a federal loan. In addition, submit a receipt for the computer you purchased and a letter from your academic advisor stating why this computer purchase is vital to your studies (i.e., in addition to the computing facilities provided on campus and in the residential/apartment areas.) Note that the federal loan serves as a reimbursement for the computer, so you must purchase it first and submit the paid receipt with your application.
