You can’t make a loan payment if you don’t know how to stay in touch with your loan servicer(s). The table below has contact information for the loan servicers who handle some of the loan programs commonly used by MIT students.
If you didn’t attend MIT as an undergraduate and you have a federal loan through a bank, contact your MIT loan counselor for help in locating your loan servicer. If you’ve borrowed a federal loan, you may also log on to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). You’ll need a PIN to access this federal student financial aid database. Or you can use the National Student Loan Clearinghouse Loan Locator to identify your primary loan contacts.
