1 How to create an Interest Accrual Request using My AmeriCorps Online Account Compiled from Montana and Washington Campus Compacts

2 What is Interest Accrual & Am I eligible? As an AmeriCorps alum, you are eligible to have the National Service Trust pay all or a portion of the interest that accumulated on your qualified student loan(s) during your term of service. To be eligible to have accrued interest paid: The loan must have been placed in forbearance for the service period, (while you were still serving!!) AND You must have successfully completed a term of service and received an Education Award. See the How to Request a Loan Forbearance PowerPoint to learn how to request that your loan be placed in forbearance.

3 Visit the AmeriCorps Homepage: www.americorps.gov Click MyAmeriCorps: Login

4 Log into your account. (Have your loan information handy.) You will need your loan account information to complete the request. (Loan company, type of loan, and account number.) *See Create MyAmeriCorps Account PowerPoint if you need assistance setting up an account.

Check your loan paperwork ( fine print ) to see if you are eligible.
