Student Loan Holds

Past Due Student Loan Hold is placed on past due Perkins and Health Professions student loan accounts. This hold restricts access to many University services including registration, release of official transcript and receipt of diploma. Please contact Student Loans Receivable at (970) 491-6467 for specifics.

Student Loan Exit Hold Federal regulations require Perkins and Health Professions student loan borrowers who graduate, withdraw or fall below half-time enrollment status to complete exit counseling. To complete the exit counseling requirement, stop by 555 S. Howes St., Room 110 for in-person counseling, call (970) 491-6467 or email bfs_arloans@mail.colostate.edu (include your name and student ID number) to request exit paperwork. Once the completed paperwork is processed by our office, the exit hold will be lifted. This hold restricts access to many University services including release of an official transcript and receipt of diploma.

Student Loan Privacy Policy (FERPA)

Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99), a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records, Colorado State University Student Loans Receivable Office may only disclose student loan account information directly to the borrower of the student loan. If you, the borrower, would like to allow another person access to your student loan account information, then you must complete the FERPA release form and return it to the CSU Student Loans Receivable Office authorizing the individual(s) access to your student loan account.

Student Loan Tax Credit Information

The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 and the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 contain provisions relating to interest payment deductions on qualified education loans. Colorado State University will send eligible borrowers a letter and a 1098-E form listing the amount of interest paid for each tax year.*

Colorado State University staff does not provide tax advice. We urge you to learn more about these tax credits by consulting with your tax advisor.

*In mid-January of each year, borrowers who paid at least $10.00 and up to $599.99 in interest for the prior calendar year will receive an "FYI" letter stating the amount. ONLY borrowers who paid $600.00 or more in interest during the prior calendar year will receive an actual 1098-E tax form.
