2022-23 Grade Level Advance Form

Students who advance from first-year status to sophomore status or sophomore status to junior status in the middle of the academic year may be eligible for additional Federal Direct Loans.
Only complete this form if you have reached sophomore or junior grade level/status after the Fall 2022 semester. Use this chart as a guide:

Grade Level	# of earned/completed credits as of the end of the Fall 2022 Semester
Sophomore	25-56
Junior	57+

Please note: If you have earned at least 57 credits by the end of Spring 2022, you are already receiving the maximum Federal Direct Student Loans available to you as an undergraduate student. There is no additional loan eligibility for students who advance from a junior (57-90 earned credits) to a senior (91+ credits) at the end of Fall 2022.
