Welcome to the Direct Loan Electronic Signature Web Site

All students and parents requesting a Federal Direct Loan are required to complete a Master Promissory Note (MPN) with the William D. Ford Direct Loan Program (FDSLP) in addition to completing the loan request through Baker College. To complete the Master Promissory Note, visit www.studentloans.gov and click on the Green "Sign In" button. You will need your Federal Student Aid PIN in order to sign into this site. If you don't have your Federal Student Aid PIN, please visit the Federal PIN website.
