Federal Direct Loans
Borrowing money for college is a serious financial obligation. Students are advised to borrow only what they actually need.

- Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans - For students enrolled in six credit hours that count toward their degree at Seminole State College
- PLUS Loans - For parents of dependent undergraduate students
The interest rate for new subsidized and unsubsidized loans first disbursed on or after July 1, 2019 and before July 1, 2020 is a fixed 4.53 percent, with the exception for subsidized undergraduate loans. The interest rate for PLUS loans first disbursed on or after July 1, 2019 and before July 1, 2020 is a fixed 7.08 percent.
