The student website allows students to access their student loan information, complete their exit counseling and review their financial aid. Students will need to accept the privacy and encryption agreements and be ready to provide: * their Social Security number; * the first two letters of their last name; * their date of birth; and * their FAFSA PIN. Students may also contact the servicer or lender for each loan record to obtain additional information. The professional website allows higher educational professionals (HEPs), including financial aid administrators, lenders, servicers, guarantors and the U.S. Department of Education, to access students' loan information. HEPs access the site under the same user ID/password used for other FSA applications. The professional website offers: * Student loan information for all of the borrower's federal student loans, including the borrower's loan history, current loans and Teacher Loan Forgiveness (TLF) information. * Individual student enrollment information, which can be helpful in determining whether the student's Date Entered Repayment is correct for default cohort purposes. * Contact information and resources. * NSLDS reports based on HEP information clearance. It's very important to remember that you should not access students' information unless your agency has a prior relationship with and proper authorization from each student, as in the case of IBR. To do so without authorization is in violation of your agreement with NSLDS. To order OCAP's new NSLDS informational poster or a supply of flyers, fill out the Publications Order Form . You can email your form to communications at ocap.org , fax your form to 405.234.4390 or you can contact us at 800.442.8642 (toll-free). You can also visit us at Repayment Scoop on Facebook.
