EXIT LOAN COUNSELING

What to do if you have graduated or withdrawn and have student loans

If you are a student loan borrower, federal regulation requires you to complete exit loan counseling for Campus Based Loans and Direct Loans.

You should complete exit loan counseling when you:

  • Graduate
  • Fall below half-time student status (less than six units)
  • Cancel/Withdraw from classes
  • Leave of Absence (LOA)
  • Do not attend for a quarter
  • Have a Long Term Loan Documentation (LCOD) Hold on your student account

You will receive a notification to complete your exit loan counseling

  • Please log-in to your Heartland ESCI (Campus Based Loan Servicer) account to complete. This is also the case if you have an LCOD hold on your account.
  • Please login to your Federal Student Aid (Direct Loan Servicer) account to complete.

If you do not receive an exit counseling notification:

  1. Please email to exits@ucsd.edu including the following information: full name, PID, personal email (non-UCSD), and phone number.
  2. Once your Exit Loan Counseling is completed, please forward ECSI email confirmation to exits@ucsd.edu .
  3. Upon completion and verification the LCOD hold will be removed from your account, typically within 24 hours.
