"This year we were not quite able to meet all the needs of some students," Severs said, "so they got Guaranteed Student Loans as well as our National Di rect Student Loans - which means they may have to double up NDSL and Guarnateed Student Loan pay ments when they graduate." Severs said some UNL students probably would not be able to get Guaranteed Student Loans next year. He said the state of Nebraska has not come up with revenues to make up for the expected loss of federal funding. One major change for guaranteed student loans in volves the income cap, Severs said. A family of four with an income of up to $28,000 is presently eligible for a loan, Severs said, but the new income cap is $15,000. However, 90 percent of UNL applicants are within the income limitations. Severs said. UNL scholarships are alloted on a need-based scale, Severs said. "We go with a packaging concept," Severs said. "We start with the students of greatest need, and give them the basic grant, the work-study, and the National Di rect Student Loan. Maybe a less needy student will just get the grant, and so forth." The priority deadline for second semester financial aid is Dec. 1, Severs said. Student aid is available from private sources as well, Severs said. Love Library has a scholarship index listing private sources, he said. Applications are being accepted for several new pro grams this year, said Steve Danz, director of The Schol arship Bank, located in Santa Monica, Calif., which of fers computerized information on private financing sources for education. One source is the Exceptional Student Fellowships, part of an undergraduate scholar ship program offering aid in accoupting,pre-law,math, engineering, computer sciences and business-related fields. Danz said the new limitations on federally-funded financial aid make it mandatory for students interested in private funding to apply early. Severs said various groups charge a fee to search for scholarship sources by computer. "I have certain reservations about these agencies," Severs said. "I'm not really excited about students go ing out and spending $25 or $30 on a computer schol arship search."
