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<br>
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@nfb.org<br>
as soon as possible to discuss.<br>
