   Cumulative loan limits for undergraduate students. For undergraduate   
   students:   
      
   Dependent-$23,000 between subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford loans   
   Independent-$46,000 (up to $23,000 may be in subsidized Stafford loans)   
      
   The biggest cut-off for aid federally is in regard to loan limits that can   
   be borrowed via Stafford.  If he's a dependent student who can only take up   
   to 23k in stafford loans.
