Continuing graduate students who received a Stafford Loan for the 2008-2009 Academic Year for attendance at GW and are not required to change their lender, do not need to submit another Master Promissory Note.

If you are completing your second MPN at GW because of a required lender change, it is important to follow the "New Borrower" links as you navigate through the online process.  Although you have borrowed before, this enables the completion of a secondary and overriding document, which is required for the processing of your loan.  You will not be required to complete the Entrance Interview again.  We appreciate your patience through this confusing process.
