My school closed and now I can’t graduate. What happens to my private student loans?
Answer:
Generally, if you have private student loans, you will remain responsible for repaying this debt.
However, some states may have programs that assist students with private student loans in the event of a school closure. In addition, some private student lenders may offer options to assist certain borrowers in this situation.
