NSLDS Disclosure

The National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) is the national database of information about loans and grants awarded to students under Title IV of the Higher Education Act (HEA) of 1965, as amended. NSLDS provides a centralized, integrated view of Title IV loans and grants during their complete life cycle, from aid approval through disbursement, repayment, deferment, delinquency, and closure.

Various authorized entities provide data and have access to the NSLDS – they include Schools, such as K-State, the Department of Education Loan Servicers, the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) System, the FAFSA Processing System (FPS), Student Loan Guarantee Agencies, Federal Student Loan Lenders, and Debt Management Collection Services (DMCS).
