Exit Counseling

To complete Exit Counseling, you will need:

  1. 20-30 minutes of uninterrupted time to complete the session.
  2. Your Federal Student Aid PIN (if you do not have a Federal Student Aid PIN, visit www.pin.ed.gov). You must sign in using your own Federal Student Aid PIN to complete counseling, as use of another person’s PIN constitutes fraud.
  3. Name(s) of the school(s) you wish to notify of counseling completion.
  4. Any details on your income, financial aid, and living expenses. Some of this information can be found in your student account information.
  5. The names, addresses, e-mail addresses, and phone numbers for your next of kin, two references who live in the US, and your future employer (if known). This information is needed because at the end of the exit counseling session, this information is collected that will be included as part of your federal student loan records. Note: You may not list the same person as both your Next of Kin and a Reference.
