Loan discharge is the removal of a student’s obligation to repay student loans under certain circumstances. There are certain eligibility requirements to qualify for a closed school loan discharge, and students must apply. Additional information can be found at StudentAid.gov.

Closed School Loan Discharge Applications must be sent to the loan servicer(s), not Trinity Christian College. To find out the appropriate loan servicer, log into My Federal Student Aid or call 1.800.4.FED.AID (1.800.433.3243; TTY for the hearing impaired 1.800.730.8913).

Be sure to continue to make payments while the discharge application is being processed. If a student does not meet the criteria for a loan discharge, they will be informed by the loan servicer(s) and must continue making payments on their loans based on the terms of their promissory note.
