Abstract: The Federal Perkins Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN) is a promissory note under which a borrower may receive loans for a single academic year or multiple academic years. The adoption of the MPN in the Perkins Loan Program has simplified the loan process by eliminating the need for institutions to prepare, and students to sign, a promissory note each award year.
