PLUS Lender List

Note: Any student who is borrowing a PLUS loan for the first time at the University of Wyoming is required to choose a lender before their loan can be certified. To make the process of selecting a lender easier for you, the following lenders have been chosen to be on the University of Wyoming’s lender list after consideration of the following major criteria: borrower benefits, customer service and technology.  This list is reviewed annually and updated as needed.  For further information on method and criteria for the University’s selection of lenders, please click here.  Students are not required to select a lender on the list provided and the University of Wyoming will not deny, impede or cause unnecessary delays in certifying a loan if a student chooses a lender that is not included on the list.

Please complete the PLUS Loan Request Form(at the bottom) which will link you to the Master Promissory Note (MPN) for the lender of your choice. If your choice of lender is not listed, please contact the Student Financial Aid office for guidance on completing a Master Promissory Note for that lender.
