Up to a certain amount of your loans may be eligible to be subsidized; however, some of these loans may be unsubsidized. Interest can be deferred until after graduation for subsidized loans. Interest begins to accrue immediately on unsubsidized loans. This estimate does not distinguish between subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Direct Loans. You may qualify for additional Federal loans.

¹⁰ Estimated Cost: Estimated costs per semester and per full year are calculated using your estimated total program cost averaged over the estimated number of semesters or years it will take you to complete the program. Your estimated costs are based on the schedule, transfer credit estimate, scholarships, tuition assistance, and employer information you provide. Your estimate is subject to change based on your progress toward your degree, official transfer credit evaluation by UMGC, official financial aid award(s), and eligibility for tuition assistance. If your estimated savings are more than your estimated tuition and fees, your Estimated Total Cost will equal $0.
