Loan completion

Exit counselling

It is a US Department of Education requirement, that all Federal Loan students undertake Exit Counselling prior to the completion of their course and provide contact details for themselves and their next of kin. Exit Counselling provides you with important information relating to your Stafford and PLUS Loans, such as repayment obligations and the consequences of loan default.
