Loan Counseling

Federal regulations require students who borrow a Stafford Loan or a Graduate Plus loan to participate in Entrance and Exit Loan Counseling when they enter and leave school. Financial Aid Offices are required to provide you with important information regarding your rights and responsibilities as a borrower. Entrance Counseling is provided in an online session for you to complete at your convenience. It must be completed before the Financial Aid Office is allowed to release any of your loan disbursements. Exit Counseling will cover your repayment options, and will be offered in person at the end of your senior year of medical school. It must be completed before you graduate.

Complete your Entrance Counseling Requirement online at
www.MappingYourFuture.org

  1. From the Mapping Your Future homepage, select Student Loan Counseling Interview. Scroll down to select Stafford and Grad PLUS Combined Entrance from the drop down list.
     
  2. Select our school from a list of Arkansas schools. We are listed as UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS COLLEGE OF MEDICINE.
     
  3. You will then be given information to read, followed by a series of questions to answer to ensure that you understand the material.
     
  4. When you have successfully completed all questions correctly, you will be instructed to complete an online form to provide your information to our school. Once you have submitted your information, Mapping Your Future will send the Financial Aid Office a confirmation that you have completed your Loan Entrance Counseling Session.
     
  5. You will also receive a confirmation number once your information page is submitted. Keep this number for your records.
     
  6. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Financial Aid Office at 686-5813
