The amount you receive depends on all of the following factors: your academic level, the length of your program of study, your status as a dependent or an independent student, and the receipt of other financial aid.
Direct Stafford loans are low-interest loans that are available to students enrolled in accredited four-year colleges, community colleges, technical schools and trade schools. There are subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford loans. Subsidized Stafford loans require that the student demonstrate financial need. Unsubsidized loans are avail bale to any student. Applying for a Stafford loan can be done for free on the FAFSA website. The school itself will determine the monetary amount of the loan.

For undergraduate students, the maximum amount offered by a Direct Subsidized or Unsubsidized Stafford Loan varies based on the student's year in school. As of the 2023-2024 academic year, first-year undergraduates can borrow up to $5,500, while second-year students can borrow up to $6,500, and third-year and beyond students can borrow up to $7,500 per year. The total borrowing limit for dependent undergraduates is generally capped at $31,000, while independent undergraduates can borrow up to $57,500.
One key aspect that is not a benefit of the direct Stafford loan is that it may not cover the full cost of attendance for all students. While the loan offers low interest rates and flexible repayment options, some borrowers may find that the borrowing limits are insufficient to meet their total educational expenses, especially at more expensive institutions. Additionally, Stafford loans are subject to federal regulations and limits, which can restrict the amount a student can borrow based on their year in school and dependency status.
Stafford loans are fixed rate federal student loans that are guaranteed by the government. They can be used to pay for tuition, housing, books and more. Amount awarded is based on dependency status.
