Loan Deferments

A loan deferment provides confirmation that you were officially registered in a degree program at Harvard Graduate School of Education. You may have deferred your loans while you were enrolled at HGSE on, at least, a half-time basis as well as other federal loans for your undergraduate or other graduate school programs.

The Office of the Registrar uploads enrollment details to the National Student Loan Clearinghouse once a month.

Email the HGSE Office of the Registrar if you have questions specific to a loan deferment you submitted while you were enrolled in a degree program at HGSE, or if your loan provider requires completing a seperate form.
