Default Student Loan Rehab Completed Last Year CR shows collection a

Hi everyone,

I pulled my credit report before applying for a new car loan. I needed some assistnace with my PHEAA student loan.

I defaulted on this loan in 2006 and completed the rehabilitation program to remove it from default status. I recieved paperwork stating the loan was rehabilitated and I dind't pay much attention to actually checking my credit report to verify it.

After the loan was rehabilitated, I couldn't afford the payment so I applied and was approved for a consolidation. I have never missed a payment since colsolidating :-)

However, my credit report has the new consolidation loan listed, but the origina PHEAA defaulted loan is listed, with a $0 balance but Current STatus: Collection Account
Additional Information: Collection Account, Student Loan assigned to governemnt

Is that the correct status? I thought this was to be removed after a rehabilitation?

Yes that status correct. Under rehab, only your guarantors tradeline is removed....the original lender remains.

PHEAA is a lender...not sure who your guarantor was. Lenders tradelines are not removed.

It will do some damage but it is a zero balance.

Default school loan

I have a school loan, as well. However....it's in 'good standing'. My friend has a school loan that is in 'default'. I've never heard of a Student Loan Rehab Program. Can someone give me some information on this, so I can pass it on to my friend? Thanks.

If you are in default, and call to setup arrangements with the student loan company and make 9 consecutive on-time payments... they will consider it rehabbed and remove the default status from the credit reports. You MUST make 9 consecutive payments though....

Crystal...a loan is not considered "rehabbed" just because you make 9 payments. A lender must pay off your guarantor for the rehab to be completed....and it could take more than 9 payments for this to happen.
