Parent PLUS Loans and such

<p>Hi guys!
I was wondering when we were supposed to have signed up for these Parent PLUS loans. I can't find anything online-do we call in to the financial aid counselors and do it through them?
Also, if I received the Federal Stafford Loans, are they automatically given to us when we submitted the SIR, or is there additional paperwork?
I'm just paranoid that by the time I figure out what to do, some deadline or another will have passed.</p>

<p>You have to request them: [USC</a> Financial Aid](<a href=“http://www.usc.edu/admission/fa/forms/forms2.html]USC”>http://www.usc.edu/admission/fa/forms/forms2.html)</p>

<p>So it’s basically impossible to get the loans until I do the EdFund test online and a test at USC itself about first-time borrowers?</p>

<p>I don’t think its a big deal, shouldn’t take too long.</p>
