1. Bank of America have increased their ISLP Health Professions Loan amount with a credit worthy co-borrower to a maximum of $65,000 or up to COA less other aid (if lower) as determined by your approved institution.

ELIGIBILITY
The ISLP Health Professions Loan is a credit-based loan that requires a credit-ready applicant who is a US citizen or permanent resident. Applicants must have a satisfactory credit history. Applicants requesting more than $25,000 US will need a credit-worthy co-signer. Co-signers must have an established satisfactory credit history, be employed with sufficient income to meet current liabilities, including the ISLP, and a stable residency and employment history.

LOAN AMOUNT
Minimum: US $1,000
Maximum: US $45,000 or Cost of Education as determined by the school, whichever amount is lower. Students at Stafford eligible institutions should deduct the Stafford loan amount from their requested ISLP loan amounts. Students may borrow up to $25,000 on their own signatures; students requesting more will need a US citizen or permanent resident as co-signer.

ISLP Residency Loan:
Medical students entering their fourth year of school may apply for up to $12,500 in loan funds to assist in residency interview and relocation costs. Students may apply for this loan up to six months after graduation. To apply, select the residency loan option in the on-line application. Terms and conditions are identical to the ISLP Health Profession Loan for the bank you choose.

RATES
Please see the above chart for ISLP Graduate Loan interest rates. Interest rates are variable (subject to monthly adjustment), and based on the US Prime Rate or LIBOR*, as published in the Wall Street Journal.

*LIBOR = London Interbank Offered Rate, a base index used in setting rates for U.S. capital markets. Rate used is the quarterly average of one-month LIBOR rates.

FEES
Varying according to co-signer status and lender, these fees allow you to borrow without pledging assets or collateral. Initial fees will be added to the principal of the loan at disbursement. Second fees, when applicable, are added at repayment.

REPAYMENT/DEFERMENT
You can defer payment of principal and interest for up to four consecutive years while enrolled in school. Your first principal and interest payments become due 9 months after you graduate. Deferment options are available for residency/internship years. Any unpaid interest accrued during this period will be capitalized before you commence repayment. Repayment terms vary between 10 and 25 years, depending on cumulative amount borrowed; minimum monthly payment allowed is $50.00. There are no penalties for early repayment.
