What happens to my student loans?
You can access all your federal student loan information by visiting studentaid.gov. You will log in using your Federal Student Aid username and password.
If you graduate, drop below half-time enrollment, or withdraw, your federal loans will move into repayment. Federal Direct Loans typically come with a six-month grace period before repayment begins. During this time, your loan servicer will contact you with details about your repayment plan, monthly payment amount, and available options. For any questions, please reach out directly to your loan servicer. Your loan servicer can be found on your studentaid.gov dashboard under ‘My Loan Servicers’.
If Limestone is no longer operating when you’re enrolled, you may qualify for a Closed School Loan Discharge. Learn more about eligibility and how to apply at: studentaid.gov/manage-loans/forgiveness-cancellation/closed-school.
