Parents are not required to apply for the PLUS loan, it is purely optional. Even though it is optional, completing the application can still benefit the student. If a parent applies and gets approved, they do not need to take the loan. However, if the parent applies and is denied, the student can get more Unsubsidized loan funding themselves.
