Perkins Loan Entrance Session and Master Promissory Note
When accepting all or a partial Perkins Loan for the first time, you are required to complete an entrance counseling session and Master Promissory Note.
NOTE: Your FAFSA PIN is required to complete this process. If you do not have a valid PIN, you must go to the Department of Education PIN web site.
Then follow these steps to complete both the entrance session and Master Promissory Note:
- Log on to ECSI’s web site
- Provide your Social Security Number, last name, and date of birth
- Provide your PIN when requested on the Student Authentication Network page
- Most pages require that you accept the terms by checking a box at the bottom of those pages
- You must provide complete reference information for yourself, next of kin and two additional references. Failure to complete all lines accurately will keep this loan from disbursing to your account.
- PROMISSORY NOTE - Read completely. Electronically sign at the bottom of the promissory note page. The electronic signature includes a check off box plus your full legal name.
