Title IV regulations (34 CRF 682.403(d)(6)(J), require that lenders suspend
collection efforts against individuals with respect to loans made for attendance
at the closed school if the student to whom (or on whose behalf) a loan was
made, appears to have been enrolled at the school on the closing date, or withdrew
not more than 90 days prior to the date the school closed. Lenders are required
to mail a discharge application explaining the procedures and eligibility criteria
for obtaining a discharge and an explanation of the information that must be
included in the sworn statement (which may be combined) to all borrowers who
may be eligible for a closed school discharge.
