Student Loan Forgiveness Application Now Live

This week, President Biden announced the formal launch of the application for federal student loan relief which should take under 5 minutes to complete. To access the application, go to studentaid.gov and click “Apply Now”. From there, you will need to fill out basic information including your name, birth date, social security number, phone number, and email address, but you will not need to attach any documentation. After filling out the personal information, you will have to acknowledge that you meet the income eligibility requirements and then you are ready to submit. The Education Department may reach out to you directly if they require any additional information. Both undergraduate and graduate students are eligible for federal loan forgiveness as long as they meet the income requirements, and all applicants can expect to see the relief within 4-6 weeks of submitting the application form.
