State Loan Repayment & Service Forms – Mississippi Office of State Financial Aid State Loan Repayment & Service Forms State Loan Repayment & Service Forms Forgivable Loans are awards that carry a repayment obligation. Money is loaned to students in certain high-demand majors, such as nursing and teaching. To receive the money, a student signs a contract with the state to fulfill a service obligation after degree completion.
If the student completes the service obligation, the loan is forgiven or discharged. If the student fails to complete the service or otherwise abrogates the contract, the loan becomes due with interest. ECSI Services Mississippi Forgivable Loans ECSI is a third-party vendor that services all of the state’s forgivable loan programs.
Students who receive money from Mississippi through any forgivable loan program will receive information from ECSI regarding repayment once the student separates (graduates or stops out) from the program of study.

At the conclusion of the grace period (if the grace period is applicable), a student must either: 1) provide proof of employment to qualify for a service deferment or 2) begin making payments.
Failure to do one of these two things may result in the student account going into collection status. Deferment and Cancellation A “Deferment” is a postponement of payment. A student borrower should request a deferment of debt if the student is pursuing a required residency or if the student is working to complete the service obligation.
A “Cancellation” is a cancellation of all or part of the debt after working. A student borrower should request a cancellation of debt after completing each year of the service obligation.
Students in the following programs may request a deferment for residency training: State Dental Education – Residency in General Dentistry for 1 year Graduate and Professional Degree Programs – Residency in Podiatry for 4 years; Residency in Chiropractic Medicine for 1 year State Medical Education – Residency in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Obstetrics/Gynecology, or Pediatric Medicine for 4 years SREB Regional Contract Program – Residency in Optometry for 1 year; Residency in Osteopathic Medicine for 4 years Veterinary Medicine Minority Program – Residency in Veterinary Medicine for 4 years At the beginning of each year of residency, a student borrower should submit a Residency Deferment Form: Service Deferment and Cancellation At the beginning of each year of employment, a student borrower should submit the appropriate form to defer payment of the debt, because the student is currently working to complete the required service obligation.
