FINANCIAL AID

Graduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents (and not currently in default on loans) are automatically eligible to receive $20,500 in federal unsubsidized student loans per academic year.

• Repayments begin six months after graduation; no early repayment penalties apply.

• Interest, currently 6.54%, accrues while students are in school.

• Students who need additional funds to cover their tuition fully may apply for secondary credit-based loans, such as the Grad PLUS (interest currently at 7.54%.

Please note: The VCU DAPT program spans 1.5 academic years; therefore, students may receive a total of $20,500 in the first academic year (fall 2022-summer 2023) and $20,500 in the second academic year (fall 2022). The first-year balance will need to be covered by a Grad PLUS loan.

We encourage students seeking financial aid to complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid as soon as possible.
