U.S. Federal Loans for American Citizens
American students who are interested in studying in Rome are
eligible to apply for federal graduate loans in the U.S. This
process should be started in January and can be started prior to
receiving an acceptance to St. John's University. The University
deadline for filing the FAFSA is Feb. 1 each year.
The following is a
brief description of the financial aid application process:
First, students must
fill out a FAFSA form, this may be
done on-line. You must include the SJU Title IV Code: 002823.
The U.S. government
will automatically notify SJU that you have filed for loans. You
should receive a copy of the form you filed in the mail, you will
be asked to confirm that all the information is correct and to mail
it back to the U.S. government agency.
Once you are
admitted to St. John's and the university has received your FAFSA
(this comes from the U.S. agency), the university will process your
loan request.
St. John's will send
you a package and a financial letter. Then you will have to
complete the necessary forms provided by the financial aid office
and return them via mail to the university.
