Importante 🚨

The Department of Education (ED) announced it is shifting its student loan portfolio responsibilities to the Treasury Department through a new interagency agreement, with the subsequent goal of phasing out other Federal Student Aid functions to the agency.

NASFAA President and CEO Melanie Storey responded to Thursday’s announcement with serious concerns for borrowers, and urged ED to establish and communicate clear timelines for ex*****on with stakeholders, including financial aid professionals.

“Regardless of which entity is servicing student loans or collecting on defaulted loans, what’s most important is that students and borrowers have frictionless service and maintain access to the information they need to make progress on repaying their loans,” Storey said in a statement. “That means providing clear communications on the status of their loans, information on how to rehabilitate defaulted loans, and who they can reach out to for assistance. Making a transition of this magnitude would require significant time and careful planning to avoid potential disruption to borrowers — an undertaking that could be challenging given the steep staff reductions that have taken place across the federal government.”

🚨

The Department of Education published a new resource titled “Application for Approval to Participate in Federal Student Financial Aid Programs User Reference Guide.” While NASFAA is unaware of an official announcement, the user guide now appears as a resource on the Federal Student Aid Title IV Participation Application webpage.

The introduction states that the guide provides detailed instructions for completing the Application for Approval to Participate in Federal Student Financial Aid Programs (E-App), beyond the help text that is provided in the application itself, and the instructions are organized by E-App section. The guide also offers details on how to resolve Partner Connect access issues and contact information for additional assistance.
