Jenny, When you file your Financial Aid application with UOP or Axia you must go through a series of acknowledgments via the Financial Aid Web site at UOP. These acknowledgments state policies, restrictions and procedures for how financial aid works. Additionally, there is a portion on there that states, and I quote "In addition to grants, are you interested in applying for federal student loans?" The options given are "Yes, Loans and Grants" or "No, Grants Only". By default the Yes option is checked off since this is the most common option, but a student has the option to choose grants when applying. Only the student can designate this as this website is inaccessible to employees. The website has been banned, for at least the past 3 years, from access at all campus and company facilities to prevent any such abuse. So if you only wanted to apply for grants, was this option not available to you? By the way, if you want to find out from an external source how much money you were qualified for and was sent to the school, check out (www.nslds.ed.gov). You can simply login and check out any past and present loan/grant info.
