May graduates need to complete Exit Counseling if they have ever borrowed through any loan program throughout their collegiate career. This can be accomplished at www.nslds.ed.gov and should be completed before graduation to avoid a hold on transcripts. Exit Counseling ensures that borrowers are aware of their rights and responsibilities as they enter repayment.
