STEP 1
You and your parent(s)(if you are a dependent student) should apply for a Personal Identification Number (PIN) by visiting www.pin.ed.gov. You will use these PIN’s as your electronic signatures for your FAFSA on the web.
STEP 2
Once you have your PIN, you can fill out a Free Application For Student Aid (FAFSA) online, using your PIN to sign it. This is a free service, that when completed provides a copy of your Student Aid Report (SAR) to International Air and Hospitality Academy.
When filling out the FAFSA, use our Federal ID School Code which is 022229.
STEP 3
Apply for Federal Direct Loans
STUDENTS
A: Sign into the website – www.studentloans.gov
B: Fill out a Master promissory Note (MPN) online, using your PIN from step 2 to sign it.
PARENTS
(If the student is considered Dependent, according to FAFSA guidelines)
C: Fill out Credit Record Authorization Form
Parents complete the following steps ONLY if
directed by the Financial Aid Office
D: Fill out PLUS Application / Master Promissory Note (MPN) by the parent signing into the website with their own information/PIN – www.studentloans.gov
E: Click “Start PLUS Application Process”
F: Complete Parent PLUS – signing the MPN with their own PIN
IMPORTANT****In most situations, dependent students are NOT eligible for additional unsubsidized loans if a parent declines to apply for a PLUS loan first. Therefore, we ask parents apply for the PLUS loan –right away– by following “Step C” above. If the PLUS is denied – the dependent student is then possibly eligible to receive additional unsubsidized loans to help cover the cost of tuition.
