If you are in default, you are no longer eligible for a student loan or any other kind of student aid. If you want to return to school and receive aid, you must get our loan "rehabilitated." Call the creditor that is pursuing you. You can make an arrangement to make payments, the amount of which will vary, depending on how much you owe. After 9 (or 12) on-time payments, you loan will be current, penalties removed and negative credit reporting removed. It's a really great deal. Once your loan is rehabbed, you can then apply for aid, return to school and put your loan in deferment (no payments) while you remain in school at least half-time. If you don't know who the creditor is, call the Dept of Education. The number is on the statements you receive. Call the number and you will routed through a voice response system to get the phone number of the creditor that can help you. They will press you for a large payment, etc. but tell them you are on disability and can only afford the minimum. Be aware that now that
