Transferring from LHUP
 

Students transferring from LHUP should contact their new schools for specific financial aid application requirements and deadlines. However, the following general steps are required in order to receive financial aid consideration at another school:

Note:  If financial difficulties are the reason you plan to transfer, please discuss your situation with a Student Financial Services counselor before you make a final decision.

·         Add the new school to your FAFSA.

·         Notify your state grant agency of your enrollment change. Pennsylvania State Grant applicants must provide PHEAA Grant Division with enrollment information.

·         Cancel any Federal Stafford, Federal PLUS, or alternative loans, or portions thereof, processed by LHUP for a term during which you will no longer be enrolled there.  

·         After registration at your new school, provide deferment information to the lender or servicer of your Federal Perkins and/or Stafford Loan.  Request that your new school complete and submit any required deferment or enrollment verification forms.  

Note:  Please see the "Transferring to LHUP" page for additional information regarding the steps listed above.
