Loan Deferment
WSU reports enrollment information monthly to the National Student Clearinghouse and the National Student Loan Data System. Lenders use this information to verify student enrollment for loan deferment.
The Registrar’s Office does not process or sign loan deferment forms because the National Student Clearinghouse manages enrollment verification for WSU. Students can retrieve the following certificates through the National Clearing House.
- Current enrollment certificate: Verifies current term enrollment.
- Advanced registration certificate: Confirms enrollment for an upcoming term.
Students can use their WSU network ID and password to log into the National Student Clearinghouse to see which loan deferment notifications have been sent to lenders. Note that full enrollment data is typically available after the second Friday of each term.
Official Statement Requests
Most enrollment verifications, including certificates, are available through the National Student Clearinghouse. Please note that data may take up to two weeks to update.
WSU does not sign loan deferment or good student discount forms. Students can use the clearinghouse self-service option to print enrollment certificates or view verifications sent to loan agencies and other organizations.
When to Contact the Registrar: If an organization requires additional documentation or will not accept National Student Clearinghouse verification and provides proof of that requirement, students may submit an Official Statement Request Form to the Registrar’s Office. Allow three to five business days for processing.
Third-Party Verification
WSU uses the National Student Clearinghouse to confirm enrollment and degrees for outside organizations. Employers, background check companies, and others can verify enrollment and degrees of current and former students through the clearinghouse.
