My child has received a subsidized Stafford Loan for $3,500. What is the next best option to fill the gap from the EFC to cost of attendance?
After the Stafford has been taken, the next option would either be a PLUS loan for the parents, or, if you want the borrowing to be in the student’s name, you can consider alternative loans, which are available through private lenders. Your financial aid office can give you more information on these options.
