Warren Wilson College participates in the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program which includes Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans, as well as PLUS Loans for Parents or Graduate Students. With Direct Loans the lender is the U.S. Department of Education rather than a bank or other lending institution.

In order to qualify for Federal Direct Subsidized, Unsubsidized, or Graduate PLUS Loans you must file the Free Application For Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can file electronically at www.fafsa.gov. Even if you feel that you will not qualify for need-based aid, please keep in mind that by filing the FAFSA, you will be eligible for the lower interest Direct Unsubsidized Loan.

Private Student Loans

Private loans are NOT backed by the Federal Government. Please file the FAFSA to begin the application process for Federal Direct Loans. Even if you are ineligible for need-based aid, you will still be eligible for the lower-interest Direct Unsubsidized Loan and a Direct PLUS Loan for Parents.
