The Ohio State University

Federal Direct Loan borrowers who are leaving school, dropping below half-time enrollment or graduating must complete exit counseling. Exit counseling provides you with important information about repayment and your rights and responsibilities. Failure to complete an exit counseling session will result in the following:

• Financial aid funds will be withheld upon your return to Ohio State.
• Official transcripts will be withheld.

If you have received an e-mail instructing you to complete exit counseling, go to the Direct Loan Servicing Center's exit counseling site and click on "Take the Exit Counseling session" to begin. You will need your PIN.

Your session will be recorded once you have completed the questionnaire and finished steps 1, 2, and 3. You may sign the agreement online. Your session is then recorded, and Ohio State will have your information the next business day. Alternatively, you may print your borrower rights and responsibilities pages to sign, date, and submit to OSFA.
