Loan Deferments
Loan deferments should be submitted to the Records Office. BSU processes
deferments through the National Student Clearinghouse by providing them
with student enrollment information throughout the semester. When
loan deferment requests are submitted to the Records Office, they are
then forwarded to the National Student Clearinghouse. The Clearinghouse
notifies a student's lender(s) of their enrollment status. This
process can take two (2) to four (4) weeks.
The National Student Clearinghouse website has a student link for students with questions regarding the deferment process, as well as a Loan Locator, which lets students know who their lender(s) are.
