Loans Are Financial Aid
Students (and parents) often tell us "I don't receive financial aid, only loans." We then explain to them that loans are financial aid, and very few students can get through school without accepting some loan as part of their financial aid. This page provides you with some information about things you should know before borrowing, and provides details about the various loan programs that we offer at UC Davis. Borrowing is serious business and we want to be sure our students are well informed before they accept loans at UC Davis. We hope you find this information useful. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
