United Methodist Church GBHEM Loans & Scholarships

The Federal government provides loan options for graduate students, even if they do not qualify for need-based financial aid. The 91�Թ�� Financial Aid Office works with two types of U.S. federal government loans:

Federal Direct Loans: This is generally the lowest cost loan available for up to $20,500 every academic year. You must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, take at least six credits per semester, and submit the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to qualify.
Federal Graduate PLUS Loans: If you need to borrow more, then a Graduate PLUS loan can generally cover the remainder. You will need to submit the application for the Federal Direct loan prior to applying for the PLUS.

If federal loans are unavailable or insufficient, private or alternative education loans may be an alternative option. Unlike federal loans, private loans do not require a FAFSA to apply. Private loans are not based on need and approval is generally based on creditworthiness and ability to repay. Some students may need to apply with a credit-worthy co-signer. Interest rates, grace periods, repayment options and fees are determined by the lender and can vary considerably from lender to lender; generally, they charge higher rates than Federal loans.

The Yellow Ribbon Program

Niemi Center Fellowship Program

Under the auspices of the Niemi Center, paid fellowships offer select members of the military the opportunity to participate in impactful and world-changing research. Fellowships typically begin following the completion of the first semester of study. The Niemi Center collaborates with the George W. Bush Presidential Center for fellowship opportunities, some of which are with the Bush Institute Military Service Initiative.

We highly encourage you to find out if your employer has an official policy for those going back to school for an MBA. Some reimbursement modules are based on your grades, number of years worked at said company, or percentages per credit hour or semester.

And even if your company does not have an official policy it is worth bringing up with your manager. Some policies are born from a simple inquiry. When discussing this with your manager, focus on how your pursuit of an MBA will benefit your team and the business.
