Parent PLUS Loan Promissory Note Instructions

You have applied for a Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loan. In order to receive the PLUS Loan, the parent who applied for the loan must:

• Obtain your federal Personal Identification Number (PIN)
• Complete an electronic Master Promissory Note (MPN)

 

Obtain Your PIN

You will need your federal PIN to complete the electronic PLUS MPN. You may have applied for a PIN when your son or daughter completed the FAFSA. If you do not know your PIN or have not yet applied for a PIN, log onto the U.S. Department of Education’s PIN registration web site:

http://www.pin.ed.gov/

Complete Your PLUS MPN

Log on to the U.S. Department of Education’s Direct Loan Master Promissory Note web site:

http://dlenote.ed.gov/

Select the “Complete New MPN for Parent PLUS Loans” link located on the left side of the page. Please allow approximately 30 minutes to complete the electronic PLUS MPN process. If you leave the web site before submitting the signed PLUS MPN and return later, you will need to start all over again. Our office will receive your PLUS MPN electronically after it has been submitted and processed. You should also print a copy of the PLUS MPN for your records.

Please note: If you are having difficulty completing the above processes, please visit the UMass Dartmouth Financial Aid web site at http://www.umassd.edu/financialaid/welcome.cfm or contact our office at (508) 999-8643 so that we may further assist you.
