Graduating Professional Students: Set up Exit Session for Loans

Thursday, April 17, 2014

About to graduate from the School of Medicine, Dentistry or Nursing? Congratulations!

But before you leave us, you will need to take care of a little business: An exit session is mandatory for anyone who received loan funds while at UCSF and attendance will be verified.

If you borrowed any university-based loans, (Perkins, Health Professions , Loan for Disadvantaged Students, Nursing Student Loan, Nurse Faculty Loan or University Loan) you must attend an exit session with Student Accounts and must call to schedule your attendance for one of the sessions listed below.  Bring two references (two relatives and two non-relatives and address and telephone information.

Direct (Stafford)/Grad PLUS-only loan recipients do not need to schedule an appointment and may attend the session of their choice. All Direct (Stafford) and Graduate PLUS loan recipients must complete an online exit counseling session at www.studentloans.gov.  This online session usually takes about 15-20 minutes and can be done either before or after the scheduled sessions:

  • Medicine - May 6, 2014, 3-5 p.m., HSW-302           
  • Medicine - May 7, 2014, 3-5 p.m., CS-701
  • Nursing - May 14, 2014, 3-5 p.m., MS-214               
  • Nursing - May 21, 2014, noon-2 p.m., Toland Hall       
  • Dentistry - May 28, 2014, 10 a.m.-noon, Toland Hall       
  • Dentistry - May 29, 2014, 1-3 p.m., Toland Hall
