Student Financial Assistance encourages our current students and recent graduates who have borrowed federal student loans to take advantage of a free counseling session with a representative of the financial assistance team. Loan exit counseling sessions are one-on-one virtual meetings which will outline the different repayment options your federal loan servicer will offer you. The session should take approximately 30 minutes.

The goal of loan exit counseling is to help prepare students for making wise, sound financial decisions in their post-graduation journey. If you would like to take advantage of this customized service, contact SFA@sacredheart.edu to request an appointment.

The session with Mr. Mangini was incredibly helpful and informative. His guidance made it much easier to understand the different loan payment plans available to me. I felt more confident in making a decision that best suits my financial situation. The clear explanations and personalized advice were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this session to anyone navigating their loan repayment options.

Participating in SHU's loan exit counseling service was the most productive and helpful way to begin my post-grad journey. It can feel overwhelming to graduate college and enter the workforce with college loans being in the mix, and Mr. Mangini was extremely clear on my repayment options with each loan servicer I have. I found that learning how to consolidate my loans and being educated on the repayment plans available to me were the most helpful portions of SHU's loan exit counseling service, and every student with any questions on their loans should schedule a meeting for peace of mind!
