Information about Student Loan Exit Counseling
Student loans are both an opportunity and a responsibility. Students are expected to complete exit counseling when any of the following occur:
- Enrollment drops below half time (six credit hours)
- Graduation
- Withdrawal
The best way to complete Exit Counseling and have all the most current information on your rights as a borrower is to complete the process online through StudentAid.gov, a website regularly updated for your benefit by the Department of Education.
For the convenience of our students, we are also posting a link to the most current PDF edition of the Student Loan Exit Counseling Guide. Hard copy printouts may be requested at the financial aid office.
