Does Federal Direct Loans (FAFSA) also provide funds for housing and travel for medical school?

I was wondering if the Federal Direct loans offer funds outside of tuition.

Do I want to consolidate my Federal Perkins loan with my Federal Direct Stafford Loans? For those of you who are consolidating, you know that the Federal Stafford Loan interested rate as of July 1, 2006 will be 6.80% and the current interest rate for this loan type is 4.7% variable. I am wondering if I should consolidate my Federal Perkins loan even though the interest rate is 5.0% fixed. I am not interested in the Loan Forgiveness stuff that comes with the Perkins loan. I just want to know whether or not to consolidate the Perkins Loan for a lower interest rate on it. Or will I get a higher interest rate on it since only the Federal Direct Stafford/Ford Loans are experiencing an increase in the interest rate. Prompt responses very appreciated! I have until June 30, 2006 to consolidate!!!

Since the government is covering the interest till I graduate?

Federal Direct Parent Loan Approval? Background: I plan to be a freshman at the University of Washington. I'm an out-of-state student from Illinois. I received the following financial aid: Federal Pell Grant $4731 Federal Supplemental Grant $4000 Federal Perkins Student Loan $3000 Federal Work Study Program $3300 Federal Direct Sub Stafford Loan $3500 Federal Direct Parent Loan $17,265 My father and I are very concerned about the Federal Direct Parent Loan. When I graduate from the university, my father will be in his 60s, retiring.

Now I have received some scholarships and I don't know if I am required to take out the full amount of the Plus loan of if I can forget about it(what I would like to do). I haven't filled out the promissary note yet, and I haven't done the bank application. Can I get out of the Plus loan?
Federal Direct Parent Plus Loan? One of the requirements for registration is that parents must have a FAFSA Pin Number. Is this number the same as my FAFSA pin number? If not, does this mean they have to fill out their own FAFSA all over again? (because I already filled out mine) Also, I heard that there are no grace period? So when do I repay back my loan if I borrow money for the 08-09yr?
