I went to school medical assisting and pharmacy tech and then I struggled with mood disorder. I had Dr fill out student loan discharge papers and she put mood disorder moderate under control can’t concentrate,can’t remember ,keep pace workload,understand simple instructions no limits sitting standing see notes social and send in therapist note activities daily living form ,therapist medical sheet,Dr medical sheet . What are my chances of getting approved discharge . I really need it. I can’t work and focus.
Your chances aren’t good because NO ONE’s chances are good. It is very difficult to get student loans discharged.
You need to make a case that you not only can’t work now but most likely can never work at ANY job.
Are you collecting disability benefits? That actually helps a lot, to have another government agency declare you disabled.
I wish you the best of luck. Maybe try to work with financial aid office?
Disability discharge is done through the federal process, not through the school. You need to complete the paperwork & submit your doctor’s statement. There is no way any of us can know whether you will be approved. Just follow directions & submit what is requested.
I haven’t heard of anyone getting student loans discharged. Doesn’t mean it can’t happen. Have you considered a forebearance instead?
Borrowers can get loans discharged if they have a total and permanent disability: https://www.disabilitydischarge.com/.
I never advise borrowers that I think they can or cannot qualify. I just direct them to the site.
