How To Get Your PIN To Find Out About Your Student Loans

To go anywhere, you need to know where you are right now.  

With student loan issues, we need to know “where we are now” with our student loans, particularly if you are dealing with student loan collection issues.

Who has them.

In default or current?

How much do we owe?

You need your PIN to get the information.

Here’s how to get your PIN for your student loans.

You can go to the official “Federal Student Aid PIN Web Site” to start the process.

Click on the “APPLY NOW” button.

The first step is to apply for a PIN.  You’ll need to put in a lot of personal information and then either select a PIN (4 digit number) or one will be created for you.

The second step is to submit your PIN application.

You’ll need to promise not to share it with anyone.

The final step is you’ll get a confirmation number.

Then once your information is verified, you can use your PIN at the locations listed here.

The most useful one will typically be at the National Student Loan Data System Web Site where you can see your history and the status of your loans.

You’ll typically see a list of all of your loans.

Then you can click on each one to “drill down” to see more about the amount owed, the history of the loan, the status, and who is handling your loan (servicer, lender, guaranty agency, etc).

Once you have this information, then you can start figuring out where you want to go with your student loans and what options you have available.
