Student Loan Application Process

Welcome to the Neosho County Community College Student Loan Application page.
Follow the instructions and links below to apply for student loans at Neosho County Community College. The process may be different at other institutions.

Students may choose the lender of their choice. Lender fees and timing of processes and disbursements may vary. For information on approved lenders you can print a 2007-2008 Neosho Student Stafford List or 2007-2008 Neosho Parent PLUS List.

How To Apply:
Students who borrow from the Federal Family Education Loan Program must initiate the following two steps. This includes Stafford Loans (both subsidized and unsubsidized) and Parent PLUS Loans. You can print a loan process information sheet here. Please review the new loan policy below on this page.

Step 1. Complete Online Loan Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note (MPN)
These are performed electronically and NCCC will receive confirmation that you have successfully completed the process. Remember your user ID and password, as you will use these throughout your academic career. You create your own user ID and password and the Office of Financial Aid has no knowledge or record of them. If you have problems logging in to OpenNet or need to retrieve your user ID or password, call 1-888-272-5543 and select option 2.

You must complete entrance counseling to enter the site to establish your promissory note. If you complete entrance counseling and do not complete your promissory note, you will need to redo the entrance counseling. (This will give you the opportunity to become even more acquainted with the loan programs.)

Important Note: At the end of your entrance counseling test page results, click on "Return to Complete My Stafford Loan". This will take you to the promissory note site.
