Unsubsidized Student Loans. Unsubsidized Student Loans are federally guaranteed loans that are available for students who desire to pursue education, but lack the financial resources to do so. These loans are not based on financial need. Interest on the unsubsidized student loans starts to accrue as soon as the loan is disbursed to the school. These are fixed interest loans and a student is not required to start making repayments while he or she is in school.
Unsubsidized Loan Limits. The amount a student may borrow is determined by level of study as follows: $5,500 if a first-year student enrolled in a program of study that is at least a full academic year (if a portion of the loan qualifies to be subsidized, the subsidized portion can't exceed $3,500).
