Welcome to the Loan Counseling page for Student Financial Services. Below please find the links necessary to complete the loan process and ensure proper disbursement of your loan funds.
Entrance Counseling - Before we can disburse a loan, federal regulations require that you complete an entrance counseling session. This interactive session provides information on managing your student loans. If you are a first time borrower or are new to BC, you must complete an entrance counseling session.
Exit Counseling - If you graduate, withdraw, or drop below 6 credit hours, you will be required to complete an exit counseling session. This interactive session provides information on managing your loans after you complete your education.
Loan E-Signature - The Master Promissory Note (MPN) is the loan agreement between you and your lender. The loan e-signature provides you with all the information on the Master Promissory Note (MPN). Once your loan is certified, you will be required to complete this step. Please note: If you have already taken a loan with the same lender, the MPN you originally signed is still valid so you will not have to do another one.
Loan Appointment- If your prior loan amount exceeds the BC institutional limit ($20,000), or your current request will cause you to exceed the limit, you will be required to calculate the amount of your repayment and see a Sr. Financial Aid Adviser in order to be approved for additional funds. The loan calculator will summarize your monthly repayment obligations.
Debt Counseling Workshops- This workshop was developed to inform you of your loan responsibilities and help you to manage your debt. The workshops are held on every campus at various times through the semester.
