Cancellation

University Trust Fund loan

You may qualify to have your UTFL loan canceled, allowing the principal and interest to be paid off, either in part or completely.

Total and permanent disability

If you are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity because of a medically determinable, permanent, and total impairment, the unpaid balance of your loan, including accrued interest, may be canceled. To claim this entitlement, complete and submit the Loan
Discharge Application: Total and Permanent Disability
form to the SFC office for loan cancellation. Include a physician's statement with your request that certifies the date of onset, nature, and extent of your disability, along with copies of all medical records pertinent to the disability.

Death

If you die, the unpaid balance of your UTFL loan, including accrued interest, may be canceled. The executor of your estate must submit a death certificate or other official proof which is conclusive under state law.
