Administrative Relief for Students and Borrowers Affected by Military Mobilizations

    The Department of Education has released Dear Colleague Letter GEN-03-06 which provides guidance regarding the administration of the Federal student aid programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act for students and borrowers who have been ordered to active military duty and for active duty military personnel whose duty station has been changed as a result of a military mobilization.

    This letter updates the guidance issued in September 2001 Dear Colleague Letter (GEN-01-13) that provided guidance for the treatment of students and borrowers who were impacted by the military mobilization that followed the September 11 terrorist attacks.  Both letters can be found on the Department's web site at http://www.ifap.ed.gov.

    Any questions related to this Bulletin should be directed to the UHEAA Policy and Training Department at 801.321.7166 or by e-mail at mjohnson@utahsbr.edu.
