Lets Fulbright teachers and English assistants count their service toward student loan forgiveness.
This bill would let people who serve in certain Fulbright programs count that time toward public service student loan forgiveness. Currently, these programs do not qualify for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. If passed, this would help participants reduce their federal student loan debt.
Today, participating in a Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program or Fulbright English Teaching Assistant Program does not count toward public service loan forgiveness. If this bill becomes law, time spent in these programs would be officially recognized as public service employment, making participants eligible for federal student loan cancellation.
