The Mortgage Origination Program, also known as Standard MOP or 1/1 MOP, is a fully-amortizing first deed of trust loan with a one-year adjustable interest rate based upon an internal University index (MOP Index). The annual interest rate adjustment is capped at 1%, up or down, subject to minimum and maximum interest rates. There is an overall interest rate cap of 10% over the initial interest rate, and a minimum rate of 3.25%.
