The following are the steps you should take to get out of delinquency or default on your own.
DELINQUENT?
- Check the status of your loans on your Federal Student Aid or IonTuition Account
- If under 270 days delinquent, you haven’t defaulted yet and should contact your Servicer or IonTuition to discuss steps necessary to avoid defaulting
- If you are more than 271 days delinquent, you are in default and your account may have been transferred to a debt collection agency.
DEFAULTED?
- Call 1-800-621-3115 to find out which debt collection agency is servicing your loan.
- Contact the debt collection agency.
- Enter a repayment plan such as loan rehabilitation, a popular plan for defaulters.
- Learn more about loan rehabilitation
- Learn more about the benefits of rehabilitation
- Work with the debt collection agency and remove your default.
All Federal student borrowers can receive services at no cost from Servicers & Private debt collection agencies.
