Welcome to Harvard Graduate Loan Exit Counseling!
If you borrowed a Harvard Graduate Loan with Harvard FCU, your school may ask you to complete Exit Counseling. Exit Counseling provides important information to prepare you to repay your education loan, and is typically required when you drop below half-time enrollment, graduate, or withdraw from school.
Tenga en cuenta que el proceso de asesoramiento de salida puede variar de una escuela a otra. Si aún no lo has hecho, te recomendamos que te pongas en contacto directamente con tu centro educativo para confirmar los requisitos del asesoramiento de salida antes de seguir adelante.

La siguiente presentación le proporcionará una visión general de la información que necesitará para reembolsar con éxito su préstamo para graduados de Harvard.
*Please note that Graduate Loans borrowed after April 1, 2023 will receive a 9-month grace period. Graduate loans borrowed prior to that date will receive a 6 month grace period. You can log into your Harvard FCU Online Banking account and access your education loan portal to confirm when your grace period will end.

Parte de la gestión de su préstamo educativo incluye el aprendizaje de algunos de los términos clave asociados a su préstamo. Conocer algunos de los términos clave que aparecen a continuación puede ayudarle a entender mejor su préstamo y su reembolso.
Capitalización - Cuando los intereses no pagados se añaden al importe principal de su préstamo educativo. Esto suele ocurrir al final de cualquier período de gracia, aplazamiento o indulgencia.
Grace Period – A 6-month period that occurs once you graduate, leave school, or drop below half-time enrollment. Please note that beginning on April 1st, 2023, Harvard Graduate Loans will receive a 9 – month grace period (loans borrowed prior to that date will receive 6 months). Payments are not required during the grace period, which gives you time to get financially settled and prepared for repayment.
Each loan has only one grace period. If you took some time off from school, you may have already used the grace period on some of your loans, so you may go directly into repayment on those loans as soon as you leave school.
Amortización - Es el proceso de repartir un préstamo en una serie de pagos fijos hasta que el préstamo se liquida al final del calendario de pagos.
Pagaré maestro - Documenta la promesa jurídicamente vinculante que haces de devolver tu préstamo educativo bajo ciertos términos y condiciones, y entra en detalle sobre las consecuencias de no devolver tu préstamo.
Divulgación finaldel préstamo - Confirma el tipo de interés, el importe del préstamo y el coste final del mismo. Además, el calendario de amortización se describe en la Divulgación Final y proporciona una estimación de lo que serán los pagos mensuales una vez que se reembolse.
U.S Prime Rate – The prime rate is an important index used by banks to set rates on many consumer loan products. Harvard FCU uses the U.S. prime rate as the index for our variable rate education loan products.
Indulgencia de morosidad/Aplazamiento de pago - Le permite reducir temporalmente o dejar de hacer pagos. Sin embargo, los intereses seguirán acumulándose durante este período y se capitalizarán en el saldo principal una vez que vuelva a pagar.
Incumplimiento - Falta de pago de su préstamo educativo. Un Préstamo para Graduados de Harvard entra oficialmente en mora una vez que se encuentra 180 días vencido.
Lender – A bank or other financial organization that makes funds available to a person or business with the expectation that the funds will be repaid. Harvard FCU is your Harvard Graduate Loan lender.
Servicer – An organization that collects payments on behalf of a lender. The servicer also handles the day-to-day tasks for managing your loan. University Accounting Services (UAS) is the servicer of all Harvard FCU education loans.
You may face some challenges that can make it difficult to manage and repay your education loan. Finding employment after graduating, experiencing a job loss, or unplanned medical expenses are just a few examples of road blocks that can make the repayment process tough. If you are facing a financial hardship or simply want to discuss your repayment options, please reach out to Harvard FCU directly for additional support and guidance. We’re here to help.
