Federal Loan Repayment<br />

Prior Federal Student Loan Deferments (Postponing Payments)<br />

A student who is registered and attending classes at the <strong>University</strong> may have federal financial aid<br />

loans from previous colleges deferred. Deferment forms can be obtained from the lender if the<br />

loan is from another school. Return all deferment forms to a Financial Aid Counselor, who<br />

forwards the forms to the Registrar’s Office for processing to the holder <strong>of</strong> the loan. The loan<br />

holder makes the final determination to grant a deferment request. Students receiving federal<br />

financial aid funds may also obtain deferments for several reasons including serving in the Peace<br />

Corps, under the Domestic Volunteer Service Act and as a volunteer for a tax-exempt<br />

organization <strong>of</strong> demonstrated effectiveness in the field <strong>of</strong> community service.<br />

Receiving a deferment is not automatic; therefore, the student or parent(s) must apply for it.<br />

Borrowers must formally request a deferment through the procedures established by the” holder<br />

<strong>of</strong> their loan(s)”. Detailed information regarding deferments may be viewed at http://www2 ed<br />
