Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)
​​
​​
ENDS FEBRUARY 1, 2022
The U.S. Department of Education (ED) recently announced a temporary period during which borrowers may receive credit for payments that previously did not qualify for PSLF or TEPSLF. 
Click Here to Learn More!
Qualifying for PSFL:
​​1. Be employed by a U.S. federal, state, local, or tribal government or not-for-profit organization (federal service includes U.S. military service); (If you worked for a nonprofit for 30 + hours this can be added as an income as long as you received some form of pay, this could include mileage reimbursement)
3. Have Direct Loans (or consolidate other federal student loans into a Direct Loan)
2. Work full-time for that agency or organization
4. Repay your loans under an income-driven repayment plan
5. Make 120 qualifying payments
To ensure you’re on the right track, submit a Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), TEPSLF, & PSLF Form annually or when you change employers.
Go to Form
See the Public Service Loan form below and complete the form carefully. Make sure that employment dates include the month, date and year. Complete one application per employer. 
Public Service Loan form
We’ll use the information you provide on the form to let you know if you are making qualifying PSLF payments. This will help you determine if you’re on the right track as early as possible.
Graduation Requirements
​​​Emergency Waiver

​(GREW)
​
Seniors who meet the following criteria may choose to access the GREW:
​
  • Reasonably expected to graduate; and​
  • Impacted by significant disruption to their education; and
  • Can demonstrate postsecondary preparation; and
  • Finish their High School and Beyond Plan and all specific graduation requirements (credits or graduation pathways) needed for their postsecondary plan no later than August 31, 2022.
  • Students in the class of 2023 who want to graduate early and only need their pathway requirement waived may also access the waiver. ​
In July, 2021 the State Board of Education (SBE) passed permanent rules allowing districts to offer waivers of certain graduation requirements on an individual student basis during certain emergencies, including the current COVID-19 public health crisis. 
Vertical Divider
The current GREW rules permits the waiver of up to 2.0 core or flexible credits and/or the graduation pathway requirements for students in the classes of 2020, 2021, and 2022 as described in Chapter 180-111 WAC.  
Vertical Divider
The GREW should be used only as a last resort for a student whose learning and ability to meet credit and graduation pathway requirements has been impacted by COVID-19.
