Loan Entrance & Exit Counseling

To insure that borrowers understand their rights and obligations, federal loan programs require that students take part in entrance and exit counseling. Husson schedules entrance counseling at the beginning of each semester for first time borrowers, and we also provide links to online counseling sessions (see below).
