Loan Servicing and Collection Information

Federal Student Aid recognizes the important work members of the community do in assisting consumers with the servicing and collection of their federally-owned loans. Federally-owned student loans include Direct Loan Program loans, TEACH Grants converted to Direct Unsubsidized Loans, FFEL Program loans purchased by the U.S. Department of Education (the Department), and Federal Perkins Loan Program loans assigned to the Department.

Federal Student Aid has consolidated its servicing and collection information and resources on this page. The information and resources are organized into key topical areas below and other useful contact, website, training, and guidance links to the right. Each time we update this page, a notice will appear on the Knowledge Center’s “What’s New” page and in the Knowledge Center subscription email.
