St. Ambrose has partnered with Sallie Mae to offer an opt-in tuition insurance plan. Participation in the tuition insurance plan is optional and St. Ambrose University does not administer the program. The University's withdrawal and refund policies are applicable whether or not you enroll in the tuition insurance plan.
Each year thousands of college students are unable to complete classes for the semester due to unforeseen medical issues such as illness, accidents, concussions, or issues related to mental health.
Unfortunately, in many cases these families are unable to recoup all of their tuition dollars. At St. Ambrose, depending on the timing of the withdrawal, there may be circumstances where you may not be eligible to receive a full refund of your tuition and fees. We understand these types of situations can be a financial hardship for many families. Therefore, we are pleased to make available the Tuition Refund Insurance plan.
Tuition Refund Insurance can help refund your tuition, fees, and room/board charges - up to the policy limits - if you are unable to complete the semester due to a covered medical reason such as an illness, accident, or mental health issue (two-day hospital stay required for mental health-related issues). This insurance program complements and enhances our school's refund policy, and we believe families will benefit from this added protection.

Grants are money that you don't repay, and they can come from government or private sources. SAU receives all financial aid funds directly - including loans and grants - then applies them to your account: once in the fall term and once in the spring term. Grants can be used to cover your tuition, books, and housing costs. You must apply for grants each academic year. If you have any loan funds in excess of your costs, you may receive a refund. If you are a first-time borrower, there is a 30-day hold on your first disbursement. For all of these grants, you must complete the Free Application Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after October 1.
Iowa Tuition Grant
To be eligible for the Iowa Tuition Grant, you must be a resident of Iowa as defined by the State Board of Regents and currently enrolled or planning to enroll in an undergraduate degree program at an eligible Iowa college or university (SAU is eligible). Iowa College Aid administers need-based college financial aid for Iowans, such as the Iowa Tuition Grant. FAFSA deadline is July 1.
Award: $6,800
Federal Pell Grant
Awarded to students of the highest need based on how much your family can contribute to your education. The U.S. Department of Education sets a Expected Family Contribution (EFC) threshold. Then, when you file your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), it computes where you land within that threshold and determines if you qualify for the grant and for how much.
Award: $6,895 maximum
Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
To qualify, you must file a FAFSA by the priority deadline of March 15 and you must qualify for a Pell Grant. This grant is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to students who have submitted all required documents for review and in time for the review to be complete. If you are eligible for a Pell Grant or SEOG, the awards will appear on your financial aid award letter.
Award: $400 maximum

Award: $2,560
Federal Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant

Loans
Loans are one way to pay for your degree.
Financial institutions lend money to a person over a set period of time with the legal expectation that the recipient will repay the amount.
As part of learning about loans, read SAU's Financial Aid Policies and use the Net Price Calculator to see how loans affect your budget.
Here are some important tips to follow when borrowing student loans:
- As a student loan borrower, be aware of your rights and responsibilities.
- Be a responsible borrower and only borrow what you need to cover your educational expenses. If you have borrowed more money than you need for the semester, you can always return it. There are no penalties for early repayment.
- Know your allotted grace period for each loan. If you go below half-time status or withdraw from school, you will enter your grace period. If your grace period elapses and you are not enrolled, you will begin your repayment period.
- Pay off accruing interest to avoid interest capitalization when entering repayment.
- Avoid defaulting on your student loan. If you have trouble making monthly payments, contact your student loan provider or school for help and information.
- If you have any loan funds in excess of your costs, you may receive a refund. If you are a first-time borrower, there is a 30-day hold on your first disbursement.
Federal Student Loans
All students filing a FAFSA are eligible for federal loans.
The SAU Financial Aid Office determines which types of federal loans you are eligible for, and the loans will be listed on your official award letter.
Federal Direct Loans
These are federally guaranteed loans. There are two types of Direct Loans: subsidized and unsubsidized. Learn more about these loan types on the federal Student Aid website.
- A subsidized loan is based on financial need; the government waives the interest accrual while the student is enrolled at least half-time. Repayment on a subsidized loan does not start until 6 months after the student drops below half-time enrollment, graduates, or withdraws.
- An unsubsidized loan is not based on financial need, and there is no interest payment deferment.
Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loans
This loan is for parents who want to finance their student's remaining balance and expenses. This is a credit-based loan with a fixed interest rate (see the table below). Parents are responsible for the full payment or interest-only payments while their student is enrolled. The loan cannot exceed the cost of attendance that remains once all other institutional and federal aid has been applied.
Loan Type | Borrower | Starting July 1 Each Year |
---|---|---|
Direct Subsidized | Undergraduate | fixed 3.73% |
Direct Unsubsidized | Graduate and Undergraduate | fixed 3.73% (undergraduate); fixed 5.28% (graduate) |
Direct PLUS | Graduate or Parents | fixed 6.28% |
*See the graduate student loan accordion for more information regarding federal loans available to graduate level students.
For information on interest rates visit the Federal Direct Loan website.
Private alternative loans are designed to assist students who need additional funding to meet the gap between the cost of attendance and any financial aid they have already received for that year/term.
Private loans are not part of the federal education loan program. Any student with questions or considering a private loan to help cover costs should first speak with the Financial Aid Office.
If you are considering a private educational loan, be aware of the following:
- As a private loan borrower, it is your responsibility to research which loan will be best for you. You should pay close attention to interest rates, fees, and repayment terms.
- If a lender approves the loan amount you requested, the University might not approve that same amount. The amount of money you may borrow (your loan) will be determined by both the University and other aid you receive. The loan also must fit within your Cost of Attendance budget set by the University according to Department of Education guidelines.
- Private/alternative loans are credit-based loans. This means that the company will run your credit history. If your credit does not pass, you may be required to have a co-signer in order to receive that loan. The majority of private educational loan lenders offer a choice of variable or fixed interest rates. Variable means that the rates will fluctuate with the market over the life of the loan. Fixed means your interest rate will stay the same over the life of the loan. This will greatly influence the total cost of the loan over the years of repayment. If you do require a co-signer, most lenders offer a co-signer release option. This means that once you are in repayment and can be approved for credit on your own, your cosigner will be removed from the loan through a refinance process.
- Many private educational loans also have associated fees. These processing or origination fees are charged to you and taken off the top of your loan. For example, you borrow $1,000 and the loan you chose had a 5 percent origination fee, you would only receive $950 because $50 is deducted for the fee.
- Once you apply, the Financial Aid office will be notified and we will certify your loan. In most cases, this is done electronically, but you can expect that processing will take several weeks to complete because of the credit underwriting that the lenders perform.
Compare Loans to Make an Informed Decision
St. Ambrose University has partnered with two private loan comparison tools, Credible and the Great Lakes tool, FASTChoice. These private loan comparison tools empower you to take control of the process and make an informed decision in selecting the best private loan for your individual situation.
- Credible is an online tool that allows students to compare personalized loans from multiple lenders. Students can analyze prequalified rates, terms, and eligibility rules side-by-side in just a matter of minutes. Credible is not a lender or bank. Credible partners with student loan lenders so that applicants have a variety of competitive options, each addressing their particular needs. Are you looking to refinance your private student loans? Credible has a resource for that too. Click here to visit the list of lenders offering private loan refinancing.
- FASTChoice, powered by Great Lakes loan guarantor and processor, helps you choose the right loan by presenting you with loan details, including eligibility requirements, interest rates, loan limits and borrower benefits. FASTChoice provides comparison tools for a variety of private educational lenders previously utilized St. Ambrose students.
As required by state and federal law, the preferred lender list has the following disclosures:
- In conjunction with lenders reviewed and used by our students, the SAU Financial Aid staff generated a list of lenders and compared those lenders' loan product details such as: fees, interest rates, rebates, etc. After evaluating those loan products, the staff generated a list of preferred lenders.
- Evaluation and Selection Criteria: After compiling a comprehensive list, lenders were evaluated and selected based on interest rates, origination fees, cosigner options, out-of-state borrower options, efficiency of loans processing, customer service, loan limit criteria, non-degree seeking loans options, past due balance options, and repayment options/incentives.
- Each lender on this preferred lender list is unaffiliated with the other.
- A student is not required to borrow from a lender on this list and may apply for a private student loan with any lender.
St. Ambrose University does not endorse any of the lenders included in the links above and cannot recommend specific lenders. Students may also choose to use a loan provider that does not appear in the list of lenders included at either of the links above.
You may be eligible for a portion or all of your student loan to be forgiven (not repaid) depending on your area of study, how your loan is financed, or where you work.
Information on this page is not exhaustive, so inquire with your loan provider or servicer.
Teacher Loan Forgiveness
If you plan to teach - and the world needs more teachers - you may qualify for a portion of your loan to be forgiven or completely paid (canceled). You may also qualify for cancellation of a Federal Perkins Loan if you meet certain conditions.
Loan type: Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, Subsidized Federal Stafford Loans, Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans
- Federal Student Aid website on Teacher Loan Forgiveness
- Illinois Teachers Loan Repayment Program (IL residents only)
- TeachIowa Loan Forgiveness Program
- Search the American Federation of Teachers funding database
Public Service Loan Forgiveness
Working in certain public service jobs and making continuous payments on your Direct Loan may qualify the balance of your loan to be forgiven. Examples of public service include government jobs at any level, attorneys in certain fields, non-profit 501(c)(3) organizations, and other non-profit groups. AmeriCorps, Peace Corps, and VISTA also count.
- Federal Student Aid website on Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)
- Americorps Education Award
- American Bar Association
Health Care Professionals Loan Repayment
Several programs offer loan repayment or forgiveness to those working in medical professions, usually in low-income or health professional shortage areas (HPSA).
Federal Perkins Loan Cancellation and Discharge
If you have a Federal Perkins Loan, there are several types of occupations that may qualify you for loan forgiveness or cancellation. Some of those jobs include, but are not limited to: firefighter, speech pathologist, nurse, librarian, and others.
View the circumstances and conditions
Summer financial aid is not automatically awarded to students. You must request summer financial aid by completing a Summer Loan Request Form listed under Financial Aid Forms. There is no institutional aid/scholarships for summer sessions.
However, if you are enrolled during the summer for at least half-time (6 hours for undergraduate or 3 hours for graduate), you may be eligible for Federal Direct Loans.
- Make sure you have filed your FAFSA for the current academic year. We will need this information to process your loan.
- The amount of loan you request may not be the amount you are eligible for. Eligibility for an undergraduate student will be determined by the amount of loans borrowed previously in the academic year. Eligibility for the year may have been exhausted.
If you aren't enrolled at least half-time, you may consider taking a Private Alternative Loan to pay for your class. Visit the Private Alternative Loan section above for more information.
