Loan Entrance Counseling

Loan Entrance Counseling is a one time requirement for all first time borrowers at Florida State University. The Loan Entrance Counseling can be completed online in 15 to 20 minutes, and may be done before the semester starts, from any secure internet connection.

If you are a Graduate Student and will borrow through the Graduate PLUS loan program, please complete the Combination Stafford and PLUS loan counseling.

Print or save your Rights and Responsibilities page at the end of the session. FSU should receive confirmation of your completion automatically but you should retain a copy for your records in case we need to confirm that you completed the requirement.

If you have any questions after completing your online loan entrance counseling form, or if you need assistance completing the loan entrance counseling requirement, please contact our office (850-644-0539 or email ofacs@admin.fsu.edu).
