Swimcatsmom, Kelsmom, I remember posting that a dependent student could accumulate close to $60k in Staffords if the parents are turned down by PLUS. Is that incorrect? Are dependent undergrads indeed limited to tat $31K figure?

If a dependent undergrad student’s parents are turned down for the PLUS loan then they are eligible for extra Stafford loans that take them up the same limits as independent undergrads.
