Student loan repayment assistance to encourage public service

Will my LRAP payments count towards federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness?

That depends. Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) has specific payment and employment requirements. LRAP Awards may serve as partial or full “qualifying” payments towards PSLF, but only if you are simultaneously meeting all of the many PSLF requirements such as loan type, loan status, loan payment, and employment requirements.
