LOAN EXIT COUNSELING:
Federal Regulations require all students to complete Exit Loan
Counseling Sessions when they graduate, withdraw or drop below
half-time status. Failure to complete Exit Loan Counseling
Sessions will result in a hold being placed on your diploma and/or
academic transcripts.
April 2008 Graduates - Your Exit Loan Packet will be available for
pick up in the Office of Financial Assistance the week of April 7th.
If you will be enrolled at least half-time status for the
Summer 2008 semester,
you do not need to complete your Loan Exit Counseling now. You will be notified to complete
your Loan Exit Counseling when you are no longer enrolled at least half-time status.
