Getting pre-approved before you apply for your Graduate PLUS Loan
will make the application process go more smoothly. It's simple.
Just follow these two steps:
Step 1: Gather the information that you'll need:
Your Social Security Number
Name of the college or university you will attend
Total loan amount you're requesting
(Total cost of graduate education - financial aid = amount
you can request)
Loan period (e.g. Fall 2006 - Spring 2007)
Step 2: Get Pre-Approved
online. Or, if you'd prefer, simply call us to get pre-approved
over the phone at 1-800-666-3910. We'll run
a credit check and get back to you with an answer.
Once you're Pre-Approved, what's next?
You'll need to complete your Graduate PLUS Loan Master
Promissory Note (MPN). This is your actual loan agreement.
You can complete your Graduate PLUS MPN online using E-Signature or print
the form, complete it, and mail it to Commerce
Bank.
