The student is not required to make any payments of principle or interest on a Direct Subsidized Stafford Loan while the student is in school. However the interest on a Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is the student's responsibility from the time the loan funds are sent to the university until it is paid in full. The student can opt to allow the interest to accumulate; however, it will be added to the principal amount of the loan and increase the amount to be repaid. It is recommended that the student contact the lender to make quarterly payments on the interest.

Theodore Gonzalves, associate professor and chair of American Studies, has been named a Senior Postdoctoral Fellow at the Smithsonian Institution for 2013, where he will work with the Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.
Gonzalves’ project, “Singing Truth to Power: The Story of Paredon Records,” traces the cultural history of a record label whose output of recorded music and speeches documented revolutionary movements throughout the globe. According to the collection’s finding aid, the label’s 50 record albums constitute a unique historical documentation of the political protest and revolutionary currents in the world over the course of three decades. Thirty-one of the fifty albums come from national liberation movements represented in Asia, Africa, and the Americas.
The Smithsonian has been supporting study and research in a variety of ways, including fellowships from predoctoral to postdoctoral scholars, since its founding in 1846. The number of senior postdoctoral fellows selected each year ranges from four to 10, making this one of the institution’s most competitive awards. The Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage is a research and educational unit of the Smithsonian Institution promoting the understanding and continuity of diverse, contemporary grassroots cultures in the United States and around the world.
Gonzalves’ research and creative work has received previous support with a Fulbright Senior Scholar award, a Moeson fellowship at the Library of Congress, a Meet the Composer grant, and other awards from humanities councils in Maryland and Hawai‘i.

Students and/or parents who have not filed their federal taxes can estimate on the FAFSA in order to meet our priority application deadline of February 14. However, it is important to estimate as accurately as possible so that your financial aid awards will be a true reflection of your eligibility. In addition, it is very important to return to your FAFSA and update your estimated figures as soon as you have filed for the current tax year.
Many students and families will have the option to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool as early as two weeks after electronically filing their tax returns and 6-8 weeks after filing a paper return to update income information.
