Exit Interviews

Before you complete your course of study, drop below half-time, transfer to another school, or withdraw from school for any reason, you must schedule an exit interview with the Financial Collections Office to discuss the repayment of your loan(s) and provide an address where you can be contacted in the future. Planning during the repayment period will be simplified if you have discussed your obligations and available benefits

THEREFORE, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE AN EXIT INTERVIEW AND THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THE TERMS OF YOUR LOANS. FAILURE TO COMPLETE EXIT COUNSELING WILL RESULT IN A HOLD BEING PLACED ON YOUR RECORDS.

If you are not sure of what loan types you have and would like a historical aid summary of all of your federal loans and grants, please visit NSLDS.
