Helpful Hints for Completing the Direct Loan Master Promissory Note (Direct Loan MPN) Online

 

We have provided these helpful hints to assist you in completing your Direct Loan MPN. You can also find assistance on the Direct Loan MPN website.

 

There are 10 steps to complete the Direct Loan MPN. Please allow approximately 30 minutes to complete all of the steps. If you exit the web site before submitting your signed Direct Loan MPN in Step 9 and return later, you’ll have to start over with Step 1. You will not be able to save your Direct Loan MPN. Also, the session will “timeout” after 30 minutes of inactivity. The next time you access the web page, you will be redirected to Step 1.

 

You must first have a federal PIN before you can sign your Direct Loan MPN online. If you do not have a PIN, you may request one from the official PIN site. It takes approximately one week to receive your PIN.

 

Some links in the electronic Direct Loan MPN web site will open a new browser window, called a pop-up window, instead of changing the screen that is currently open. In Step 8, you will be asked to review your signed Direct Loan MPN. A pop-up window will appear with your completed Direct Loan MPN and confirmation number. Write down the confirmation number and minimize the window. For Step 9, return back to the Direct Loan MPN site (your first browser window), confirm your Direct Loan MPN and submit it to the US Department of Education.

 

Use the tab key instead of the enter key on your computer’s keyboard to move between input boxes on the screen.

 

It is important to properly exit the Direct Loan MPN web site when your work is complete. To ensure your session information is clear, click the Exit button located at the bottom of each page within the Direct Loan MPN website.

 

If you do not wish to complete an online Direct Loan MPN, please contact the Student Financial Aid Office for a paper copy.
