Loan Repayment

The total loan amount, plus interest accrued on the amount, is repayable in monthly installments known as the repayment period of (10) ten years. Once the loan is received whether billed or not the loan must be repaid. Borrowers may repay all or any part of the principal and accrued interest on the loan at any time before it becomes due. Students are not required to make payments while enrolled at Xavier University.

Grace Period

The grace period is the period of time between when the borrower leaves school or drops below full-time enrollment status and the time they begin repayment of their loan. During the grace period, the borrower is not required to make payment and interest does not accrue. The grace period for the HPSL/LDS Loans is (12) twelve months. The grace period for the Perkins Loan is (9) nine months.

Interest Rate

Interest is the cost paid to borrow the money. The annual interest rate of the HPSL/LDS Loan is (5%) five percent. It is a fixed simple interest rate. Interest begins after the grace period. No interest accrues while the borrower is in school.

Late Fee Charge

Under the terms of the promissory note, a school may assess a penalty or late fee should any borrower fail to make payment on time, or fail to file the necessary deferment or cancellation prior to the schedule due date. The loan charges (6%) six percent of the past due payment amount for the late charge after 60 days past due.

Minimum Monthly Payment

The minimum monthly payment of the loan is $40.00 per month. The monthly payment amount will depend upon the size of the debt and the length of the repayment period.

Default

According to Federal Regulations, default is when any borrower fails to make a scheduled payment or to file a cancellation or deferment form on time. Defaulted student loans may be subject to the following:

  1. The entire unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest and any applicable penalties or late charges may become immediately due and payable.
  2. The loan may be referred to a collection agency or attorney for legal proceedings.
  3. The University may withhold institutional services (transcripts, degrees, etc.).

Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA)

Credit Bureau

Once a loan is disbursed, it is reported to the (3) three major credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion at the end-of-the-month. Thereafter, the loan should be considered a part of a student's debt-to-income-ratio. Account status is reported to the credit bureaus monthly.

Loan Consolidation

In summary, loan consolidation is a program that allows a borrower to bundle all of his/her student loans/payments together and refinance them to have one loan and one payment. The Health Profession Student Loan, Loans for Disadvantage Student Loan and Perkins Loan are eligible for consolidation under the Department of Education Federal Consolidation Guidelines.

DEFERMENTS, FORBEARANCE AND CANCELLATIONS

Contact ACS Customer Service (800-826-4470) or Xavier University Office of Loan Collections (504-520-5232) to inquire about eligibility.

DEFERMENTS

A borrower is entitled to defer a loan's repayment under certain circumstances. A deferment is a period of time during which the borrower is not required to repay the loan principal. Interest will not accrue during any type of deferment.

Repayment of both principal and interest on the borrower's loan may be postponed by submitting a properly completed deferment form by the specified due date. Deferments are not automatic. The deferment form must be submitted on an annual or semester basis, depending on the program. The University has a right to deny a request for deferment if it does not comply with the information requirements or if the deferment is submitted late. A borrower must notify the Xavier University or our Billing Agent, ACS, when they have completed or terminated a deferment period with a university.

Request for Forbearance (Perkins, LDS and HPSL Loans)

If a borrower is willing but unable due to financial obligations or circumstances to make the required payments on a loan, he or she may request that the school grant a forbearance.

Interest continues to accrue during any period of forbearance. The borrower is responsible for paying the accumulated interest on or before the expiration of the forbearance period.

A forbearance is not a deferment. It means a temporary cessation of payment due to the inability to pay. Forbearance is based on an individual's current financial hardship and is granted at the discretion of the lender (Xavier University).

    • Print and complete the Request for Forbearance Form with the required documentation and fax, email or mail to Xavier University Office of Loan Collection.
