Although this loan is branded with Yale's name, Yale is not the lender. Any agreements entered into with the Access Group exist solely between Access and the borrower. The loan is credit based, which means that the borrower must meet the established credit criteria. In most cases, a co-applicant is necessary. You must be registered and have completed all financial aid paperwork.
Advances are available as of the first day of classes.
To apply, contact the Financial Aid Office. Emergency loans are available to meet extraordinary needs not covered by the financial aid. Repayment cannot be extended beyond the semester in which the loan is taken. Emergency loans may not be used to make Term Bill payments. As YPP is not a loan, there are no interest charges or credit checks.
