The CSL is an advancement of state tuition dollars with a nominal interest rate applied. The CSL is repaid to the Education Fund through the Debt Service Fund. The CSL is not considered debt (not a bond or a true loan) per DLGF guidelines. The school can opt for a repayment period of one to five years.
