Entrance Loan Counseling

First-time borrowers of Federal Stafford and Federal Graduate PLUS Loans at USC are required to complete entrance loan counseling.

  • Visit the EdFund website and click on the red "EdTest" icon in the upper right-hand corner.
  • Choose "California" and then "University of Southern California-Los Angeles." Indicate your enrollment level and press "Continue."
  • Choose "Entrance Exam.” If you do not pass the first time, repeat the test until you get a passing grade.

In addition to completing online counseling, undergraduate first-time borrowers must also attend an in-person session.
