This loan program permits students to obtain low-interest loans from private lending agencies. Eligibility requirements include, but are not limited to, need. After completing the financial aid process, students loan applications are certified by the Director of Financial Aid. These loans are normally made through banks, credit unions, or savings and loan associations who participate in the program. These loans do not have to be repaid until the student leaves school or ceases to be enrolled on a half-time basis.
Interest rates are variable and subject to change.
Students must be enrolled at least half-time. First-time borrowers at Temple College must attend an entrance counseling session and cannot receive their first disbursement until 30 days after classes begin. All borrowers must attend an exit session. Hinson-Hazlewood Loan Program Terms and conditions are identical to the Federal Stafford Student Loan Program. Loans are available to Texas residents.
