The PLUS Loan for graduate students—the Nellie Mae GradPLUS Loan—is a federal student loan available for graduate- and professional-degree students enrolled at least half time in eligible programs.
Nellie Mae strongly encourages graduate students to borrow a Federal Stafford Loan before applying for the GradPLUS Loan.
