King-Garvey Loans

Purpose
To provide emergency funds to students who show need. The loan should be used to purchase textbooks or assist in an unusual extenuating circumstance. It cannot serve as money for entertainment.

Amount of Loan
The loan can be a minimum of $10.00 to a maximum of $100.00.

Eligibility
Applicants must be:
1. Student of UW Oshkosh (must have ID)
2. Served by either:
· Center for Academic Support and Diversity or
· Student Support Services (SSS)

Application Procedure
1. Request loan in Dempsey 131; fill out application.
2. Take application to cashier's office to sign and receive cash. You will be given the blue copy for your records.
3. The loan is due within thirty (30) days.

Payment Procedure
1. Repay loan at the cashier's window. NOTE: King-Garvey loans do not show up on total amounts due. For example, if you ask the cashier's office the total amount you owe the university for tuition and all fees, your King-Garvey loan amount will not show up in this total; you must know you still have the loan out and tell them to credit your payment to the King-Garvey loan. If you do not repay the loan in thirty (30) days, a STOP will be placed on your record, which will restrict your ability to do things such as register for classes or receive your diploma. The STOP will be removed from your record by the cashier's office staff at the time of payment.
2. Keep your receipt! Bring it to Dempsey 131 so we can make a copy for our records.

STOPs
If you do not repay the loan in thirty (30) days, a STOP will be placed on your record, which will restrict your ability to do things such as register for classes or receive your diploma. In the past, STOPs were lifted temporarily to allow students to register. This will no longer be done. Payment in full must be received in order for STOPs to be lifted.

Unavailability
At some times during the year, King-Garvey loans are not available. Call ahead to check.
