6 Loan Definitions Loan: The money borrowed from a lending institution or the Department that must be paid back. Grace Period: The six-month grace period after you graduate, leave school, or drop below half-time enrollment in which you are not required to make payments towards your loans (Perkins and Beloit Loans = nine-month grace Period). Have you used your grace period? Lender: The organization that made the loan initially for you which could be a bank, credit union, or the Department of Education.
7 Loan Definitions Loan Holder: This is the institution that holds your loan and promissory note and has the right to collect money from you. Loan Servicer: The company that maintains the loan for the lender. This organization will send bills, interest statements, disclosure statements, and any other necessary paperwork. National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS): The Department of Education s central location that contains information about your federal student loans.
8 Changing Relationships To this point most of your contact regarding your Federal Student Loans has been with Beloit College Now most of your questions will be directed to the lender or loan servicer.
9 Loan Definitions Deferment: A deferment is a period of time during which your lender will temporarily suspend your regular payments (and interest accrual on some loan types) Forbearance: If you are unable to make your scheduled payments, but do not meet the criteria to qualify for a deferment, the lender/loan holder may allow you to reduce or postpone the amount of your payment. Collection Agency: Company that will make all attempts and/or litigation to recover defaulted student loans.
10 Loan Definitions Master Promissory Note (MPN): MPN is the legal contract between you and the lender (Department of Education) Your promise to repay the loans even if you do not complete your education or are otherwise unhappy with the education you have received. Effective for loans from multiple years
11 Borrower Rights Loan obligation information Copy of Promissory Note Original Paid-in-Full Notice Interest rates/fees Loan balance Repayment schedule Notification of Loan Servicer
12 Borrower Rights Interest benefits Grace period Pre-payment without penalty Deferment while in school Request forbearance or deferment
13 Subsidized Vs. Unsubsidized Stafford Loans Subsidized Need-Based No interest is accruing while you are in school Unsubsidized Non Need-Based Interest begins accruing the day the loan is disbursed.
