Financial Aid

Once DIRI receives your application, the Director of Financial Aid will create an Estimated Cost Breakdown and Award Letter, which will reflect your Cost of Attendance and how your aid may be applied to your account. Cost breakdowns are estimated until the completion and finalization of all required forms.

You will need to review the Estimated Cost Breakdown and Award Letter to determine any out-of-pocket amounts owed to the Institute. To refuse any or all of the loans, email the Director of Financial Aid at finaid@rolf.org to receive a revised Award Letter and Estimated Cost Breakdown.

Before Federal Student Loans Can Be Disbursed

• You must complete both Entrance Counseling and a Master Promissory Note (MPN) at www.studentaid.gov.
• You'll need your FSA ID (same as FAFSA login) to access the site.

1. Entrance Counseling

If you have not previously received a Direct Loan, the Federal Government requires you to complete Entrance Counseling to ensure you understand your rights and responsibilities as a borrower.

Steps to Complete Entrance Counseling:

• Click Start on the left.
• Add Rolf Institute of Structural Integration (The) as your school.
• Select: “I am completing entrance counseling to receive Direct Loans as an undergraduate student.”
• Complete the counseling in one session (takes about 20–30 minutes).

2. Master Promissory Note (MPN)

Once Entrance Counseling is complete, you can move on to the MPN, which is your legal agreement to repay the loan.

Two Ways to Access the MPN:

Option A (From Next Steps area):
