<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Effective immediately, access to information in the
National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) by all participants in the student
loan program except students, borrowers and institutions of higher
education is temporarily suspended. During this temporary suspension of
access, the Department will more fully examine the specific usage of NSLDS by
those entities for which access has been suspended to determine if there was
unauthorized usage. Upon completion of this examination we will consider
options for providing NSLDS access to these entities. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Note that postsecondary educational institutions as
well as individual students/borrowers will continue to have access to NSLDS
information.</FONT></P><BR>
