e-notes
May 12, 2008
As the Spring 2008 term winds down, the K-State Office of Student Financial Assistance would like to take this opportunity to remind you that we continue to communicate with students planning to return for the upcoming 2008-09 academic year throughout the summer months via their K-State student e-mail account.
Since timeliness is often of critical importance when it comes to processing student financial assistance, we encourage you to routinely check your K-State e-mail account throughout the upcoming summer months for important notices.
For example, since the K-State Office of Student Financial Assistance has switched from offering federally guaranteed student loans through private lenders to federally guaranteed student loans through the Federal Direct Loan Program (effective earlier this spring), all students accepting a Federal Direct Loan will be required to complete a new Federal Direct Master Promissory Note (MPN).
Our office will begin to send out e-mail notifications with directions on how to complete this new MPN, beginning in June.
