Perkins Loan Borrowers

A Perkins Loan was available to undergraduate, graduate, and professional students until Sept. 30, 2017; the program has since expired. The Perkins Loan is a subsidized loan, meaning the federal government pays the loan’s interest while the borrower is in school.

The University of Northern Iowa contracts with a student loan billing servicer, University Accounting Service (UAS) to service the Federal Perkins Loans made prior to the program expiring. UAS provides web-based access to Perkins Loan accounts that allows borrowers to view payment history, update contact information, verify account balances, obtain payoff amounts, and make online payments. Borrowers can access their loan status online at www.uasconnect.com.
