Student loans, much like other forms of financial aid, need to be repaid. Despite this awareness, many borrowers fall into the trap of ignoring their student loan debt, leading to various serious consequences. They often ignore their repayment summons, typically issued either 90 or 120 days after leaving school or dropping below half-time enrollment. When this happens, the loans remain delinquent for 270 days or become 270 days past due at any time, ultimately leading to a "default" status.
Student Loan Default, Defined
Defaulted student loans occur when the borrower fails to adhere to the terms and conditions of the student loan contract. This is often caused by the attempt to escape debt, resulting in significant negative consequences for the borrower.
Before being declared in default, loans go through a delinquency period. During this time, lenders authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act make every effort to locate and contact the borrower. If they are unable to find the debtor, the loan is placed in default. It is then handed over to either the state guaranty agency or the Department of Education. Once a loan enters default status, its maturity date is accelerated, making full repayment due immediately.
