California State University, Monterey Bay: Can student loans pay for on-campus housing?
DIRECT ANSWER
Yes. Eligible education-loan funds can help cover housing costs within the student's cost of attendance.
CSUMB offers federal student loans through financial aid and includes on-campus housing/food in the 2026–27 cost-of-attendance budget. Loan eligibility and borrowing limits still control how much can be used.
