Closed School Discharge

If your school closed while you were enrolled or shortly after you withdrew, you can apply to discharge the related federal loans. Enrollment, withdrawal, and closure dates are the key facts.

Eligibility requirements

  • Enrolled at closure, on an approved leave of absence, or withdrawn within the official look-back window
  • Did not complete the program at that school or through a transfer of credits
  • Enrollment and withdrawal records, and proof of the closure

Timing and considerations

The look-back window after withdrawal depends on the closure date. Check the official closed-school list.
