[Nfbnet-students-list] Seeking feedback on student loan communication accessibility

[Danielsen, Chris]

If you have experienced accessibility issues with student loan 
communications, we need to hear from you. In October 2014, the 
National federation of the blind entered into an agreement with the 
US Department of Education to make all federal student loan 
information accessible to blind individuals. Under the agreement, the 
DOE and its loan servicers should now offer: (1) accessible websites; 
(2) digital forms that can be filled out, submitted, and saved on 
electronic devices; and (3) timely provision of alternative formats 
for all documents, including notices, statements, and publications. 
If you have had difficulty receiving accessible
federal student loan information in the past year or otherwise 
believe that the DOE or one of its loan servicers is not fulfilling 
its obligations under our agreement, please contact Valerie Yingling 
at vyingling at nfb.org
as soon as possible to discuss.
