Yes. Eligible student-loan funds can be used toward housing and food within the student's cost of attendance.

Federal and other eligible loan proceeds disbursed as financial aid can reduce the student's billed charges, including campus housing, subject to the individual aid package and borrowing limits. Any remaining balance after aid remains the student's responsibility.
