Federal Direct Parent (PLUS) Loans Note to Parents: Depending on your financial circumstances, you may be able to find more favorable funding. Please contact the financial aid office at 920-748-8101 if you would like to discuss options. To apply for the PLUS, a FAFSA must be on file for the student. If an application already has been submitted and the offer has been received or the application is in process, you can continue to the next step. All parents who wish to take out this loan must apply for the PLUS, complete a Master Promissory Note (MPN), and — beginning in 2021 — complete the Annual 6
