MWU takes pride in assisting its students as they prepare to leave our institution whether it is due to graduation, withdrawal, or transfer to another institution. We emphasize the importance for you to make arrangements to repay your student loans. Repaying your student loan(s) establishes your financial independence and credit history. Since institutional student loan programs are revolving loan funds, repaying your loans will highly benefit future students in need of additional funding.

LOAN REPAYMENT INFORMATION

You are expected to begin repayment on any student loan(s) you have borrowed after the grace period ends. Not all loans have a grace period so you are expected to begin repayment on those loans immediately.

If you cannot afford to make payments there are options that may be available to you. Please keep in mind that ECSI and our Loan Repayment Office are your best sources for repayment information. We are here for you!!!

What is Forbearance?

Forbearance is a temporary postponement of your payments during which interest accrues.

The interest that accrues during forbearance can be paid on a monthly basis or at the end of the forbearance. We highly recommend you pay the accrued interest on a monthly basis to avoid having to pay a large lump sum at the end of the forbearance.

Forbearance may be granted when you are experiencing financial hardship, poor health, or other acceptable reasons. You may alternatively request an extension of time allowed for making payments or the acceptance of smaller payments than were previously scheduled.

What is Deferment?

A deferment is a temporary postponement of your payments in which interest does not accrue.

Deferments are granted for specific situations, such as enrollment in school, unemployment, or economic hardship.
