Federal student loan regulations require that we provide exit loan counseling when students withdraw from school or cease to be enrolled at least half time. (Although many of our students return after a brief absence, we are required to provide this information.) The purpose of loan counseling is to provide you with information regarding your rights and responsibilities. Topics include your grace period, payment options, deferments and debt management.

You can complete your exit loan counseling online at www.nslds.ed.gov
and click on the "Exit Counseling" button. This website provides information about payment options, deferments, debt management, and your rights and responsibilities. When you finish the session on the website, a record will be transmitted to the Office of Financial Aid confirming that you have completed exit loan counseling.

You can get your complete borrowing history from all schools attended by going to www.nslds.ed.gov. Also, you can use the loan repayment calculators at www.finaid.org.

If you have any questions regarding your loans, please contact our financial aid office at finaid@marylhurst.edu or 503.699.6253.
