Subject: 150% Direct Subsidized Loan Limit Electronic Announcement #7 - Establishment of IFAP Information Page and First Set of FAQs

We have established on our Information for Financial Aid Professionals (IFAP) website a special 150% Direct Subsidized Loan Limit Information Page where we will post communications and other information related to the 150% requirements. This was done to ensure that all institutions have easy access to the most current information on the 150% Direct Subsidized Loan Limit and the Department’s implementation plans.

The Information Page will include links to Federal Register notices including the regulations, a section for Dear Colleague Letters and Electronic Announcements, a section on Training including webinars, other Resources, and a listing of Frequently Asked Questions, the first set of which is now available.

The 150% Limit Information Page can be accessed either by clicking on the words “Information Page” in the 150% Direct Subsidized Loan Limit Info box on the right hand side of the IFAP home page or by going directly to http://www.ifap.ed.gov/150PercentDirectSubsidizedLoanLimitInfo.

We hope this special information page is useful and provides easy accessibility to important information about the 150% limit.
