Loan Deferment

Your lender can tell you what your status needs to be to defer paying your student loan.

We send enrollment information to National Student Clearinghouse (NCH), who then gives this information to their member lenders. Some of these lenders are Utah Lenders/Banks, Sallie Mae, Zion’s Bank, UHEAA, and FedLoan Servicing.

Your lender should ask NCH for your enrollment information. Make sure we know your anticipated graduation date and that your lender knows that you are a student at BYU.
