Important Notes

Accepting loans on your MyDrury account merely lets our offices know that we should anticipate those loans to come in when funds are disbursed; it is not a binding contract with those loan facilitators.
If you have accepted federal loans and are planning to complete the acceptance process of those loans, you will need to complete the loan Entrance Counseling and your Master Promissory Note at https://studentloans.gov/myDirectLoan/index.action. Both must be completed for you to receive your loans. Entrance Counseling will open at the beginning of June and will remain open until the beginning of the school year. However, the earlier you get your loans situated, the more on-track you’ll be to move on to the next steps of beginning your freshman year. Entrance Counseling doesn’t open until June 1 for loans for the following fall.
If you wish to take out a private loan, you will need to find the loan that best suits your needs and apply for it on your own. Drury University has a loan comparison tool to get you started at http://www.elmselect.com/?oll=true&schoolId=4970#/results, but a loan through your family bank or another source might be a better fit for your family.
Drury offers several payment plan options to make paying for college more affordable and convenient for our students. If you wish to set up a payment plan, visit www.MyCollegePaymentPlan.com/drury to get started.
If you have questions or concerns about any of your account or financial aid information, please contact your admission counselor or the Office of Admission at (417) 873-7205.
