We provide more than $120 billion each year to help millions of students pay for higher education.  \n• Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) form is free, and it’s easy to apply. You can complete the application at [fafsa.gov](fafsa.gov).  \n• In almost all cases, graduate or professional students are considered independent students for the purposes of completing the FAFSA form. This means they generally are not required to provide parent information.  \nTypes of Federal Student Aid  \nGraduate or professional students may be eligible to receive aid from the following federal student aid programs:  \n• The William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program  \nThis is the largest federal student loan program. Under this program, ED is your lender rather than a bank or other fnancial institution. There are two types of Direct Loans that graduate or professional students enrolled in a program leading to a degree or certifcate may receive:  \n• Direct Unsubsidized Loans—Eligible students may borrow up to $20,500 per school year. Graduate or professional students enrolled in certain health profession programs may receive additional Direct Unsubsidized Loan  \namounts each academic year. Contact your school’s fnancial aid offce for details.  \n• Direct PLUS Loans—Eligible graduate or professional students who need to borrow more than the maximum unsubsidized loan amounts to meet their education costs may apply for a PLUS loan. A credit check will be completed during the application process.  \nGet more information about federal student loans at [StudentAid.gov/loans](StudentAid.gov/loans).  \n• Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant  \nThe TEACH Grant Program provides grants of up to $4,000 a year to students who are completing or plan to complete course work needed to begin a career in teaching. This program is different from other federal student grants in that it requires you to take certain kinds of classes to get the grant, and then todo a certain kind of job to keep the grant from being converted to a loan. To learn more about this program, visit [StudentAid.gov/teach](StudentAid.gov/teach).  \n• Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program  \nThe FWS Program provides part-time jobs for und","cbCaihG2sg6KGvrG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihG2sg6KGvrG","pdf",1205708,"English","# Resources\n## My Federal Student Aid\n## StudentLoans.gov\n# Some Facts About Federal Student Aid\n# Types of Federal Student Aid\n## Direct Unsubsidized Loans\n## Direct PLUS Loans\n## TEACH Grant\n## Federal Work-Study\n## Federal Pell Grant\n# Eligibility Requirements\n# Apply for Aid\n## FSA ID","[{\"question\":\"How do graduate or professional students apply for federal student aid?\",\"answer\":\"Complete the FAFSA® form at fafsa.gov.
