NSLDS GA Teacher Loan Forgiveness Submittal

The National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) gives Guaranty Agencies (GAs) the capability to report Teacher Loan Forgiveness (TLF) information so Federal Student Aid (FSA) can track, display, and report TLF information for students who have outstanding Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program loans. To accommodate GAs with a large number of records to report, NSLDS has provided a batch upload method that can process as many as 50 records/rows of data at a time. After information is added to the template spreadsheet the data is uploaded and transferred to an online web page to assist GA users in adding TLF data to NSLDS.

With the launch of the modernized NSLDS Professional Access website on July 25, 2022, a new updated spreadsheet must be used from that date forward. Earlier versions or user-created versions of the spreadsheet will not work with the updated website.

The updated spreadsheet submittal template is available on the NSLDS Professional Access website under the Template Downloads section of the home page. If you have questions, contact the NSLDS Customer Support Center using the contact information on the site.
