§ 1092b. National Student Loan Data System
(a) Development of System
The Secretary shall consult with a representa-
tive group of guaranty agencies, eligible lenders,
and eligible institutions to develop a mutually
agreeable proposal for the establishment of a
National Student Loan Data System containing
information regarding loans made, insured, or
guaranteed under part B and loans made under
parts D and E, and for allowing the electronic
exchange of data between program participants
and the system. In establishing such data sys-
tem, the Secretary shall place a priority on pro-
viding for the monitoring of enrollment, student
status, information about current loan holders
and servicers, and internship and residency in-
formation. Such data system shall also permit
borrowers to use the system to identify the cur-
rent loan holders and servicers of such bor-
rower’s loan not later than one year after Octo-
ber 7, 1998. The information in the data system
shall include (but is not limited to)—
(1) the amount and type of each such loan
made;
(2) the names and social security numbers of
the borrowers;
(3) the guaranty agency responsible for the
guarantee of the loan;
(4) the institution of higher education or or-
ganization responsible for loans made under
parts D and E;
(5) the exact amount of loans partially or to-
tally canceled or in deferment for service
under the Peace Corps Act (22 U.S.C. 2501 et
seq.), for service under the Domestic Volun-
teer Service Act of 1973 [42 U.S.C. 4950 et seq.],
and for comparable full-time service as a vol-
unteer for a tax-exempt organization of dem-
onstrated effectiveness;
(6) the eligible institution in which the stu-
dent was enrolled or accepted for enrollment
at the time the loan was made, and any addi-
tional institutions attended by the borrower;
(7) the total amount of loans made to any
borrower and the remaining balance of the
loans;
(8) the lender, holder, and servicer of such
loans;
(9) information concerning the date of any
default on the loan and the collection of the
loan, including any information concerning
the repayment status of any defaulted loan on
which the Secretary has made a payment pur-
suant to section 1080(a) of this title or the
guaranty agency has made a payment to the
previous holder of the loan;
(10) information regarding any deferments or
forbearance granted on such loans; and
(11) the date of cancellation of the note upon
completion of repayment by the borrower of
the loan or payment by the Secretary pursu-
ant to section 1087 of this title.
(b) Additional information
For the purposes of research and policy anal-
ysis, the proposal shall also contain provisions
for obtaining additional data concerning the
characteristics of borrowers and the extent of
student loan indebtedness on a statistically
valid sample of borrowers under part B. Such
data shall include—
(1) information concerning the income level
of the borrower and his family and the extent
of the borrower’s need for student financial as-
sistance, including loans;
(2) information concerning the type of insti-
tution attended by the borrower and the year
of the program of education for which the loan
was obtained;
(3) information concerning other student fi-
nancial assistance received by the borrower;
and
Page 692
TITLE 20—EDUCATION
§ 1092b
(4) information concerning Federal costs as-
sociated with the student loan program under
part B, including the costs of interest sub-
sidies, special allowance payments, and other
subsidies.
(c) Verification
The Secretary may require lenders, guaranty
agencies, or institutions of higher education to
verify information or obtain eligibility or other
information through the National Student Loan
Data System prior to making, guaranteeing, or
certifying a loan made under part B, D, or E.
(d) Principles for administering the data system
In managing the National Student Loan Data
System, the Secretary shall take actions nec-
essary to maintain confidence in the data sys-
tem, including, at a minimum—
(1) ensuring that the primary purpose of ac-
cess to the data system by guaranty agencies,
eligible lenders, and eligible institutions of
higher education is for legitimate program op-
erations, such as the need to verify the eligi-
bility of a student, potential student, or par-
ent for loans under part B, D, or E;
(2) prohibiting nongovernmental researchers
and policy analysts from accessing personally
identifiable information;
(3) creating a disclosure form for students
and potential students that is distributed
when such students complete the common fi-
nancial reporting form under section 1090 of
this title, and as a part of the exit counseling
process under section 1092(b) of this title,
that—
(A) informs the students that any sub-
chapter IV grant or loan the students re-
ceive will be included in the National Stu-
dent Loan Data System, and instructs the
students on how to access that information;
(B) describes the categories of individuals
or entities that may access the data relating
to such grant or loan through the data sys-
tem, and for what purposes access is allowed;
(C) defines and explains the categories of
information included in the data system;
(D) provides a summary of the provisions
of section 1232g of this title (commonly
known as the ‘‘Family Educational Rights
and Privacy Act of 1974’’) and other applica-
ble Federal privacy statutes, and a state-
ment of the students’ rights and responsibil-
ities with respect to such statutes;
(E) explains the measures taken by the De-
partment to safeguard the students’ data;
and
(F) includes other information as deter-
mined appropriate by the Secretary;
(4) requiring guaranty agencies, eligible
lenders, and eligible institutions of higher
education that enter into an agreement with a
potential student, student, or parent of such
student regarding a loan under part B, D, or E,
to inform the student or parent that such loan
shall be—
(A) submitted to the data system; and
(B) accessible to guaranty agencies, eligi-
ble lenders, and eligible institutions of high-
er education determined by the Secretary to
be authorized users of the data system;
(5) regularly reviewing the data system to—
(A) delete inactive users from the data sys-
tem;
(B) ensure that the data in the data sys-
tem are not being used for marketing pur-
poses; and
(C) monitor the use of the data system by
guaranty agencies and eligible lenders to de-
termine whether an agency or lender is ac-
cessing the records of students in which the
agency or lender has no existing financial
interest;
(6) developing standardized protocols for
limiting access to the data system that in-
clude—
(A) collecting data on the usage of the
data system to monitor whether access has
been or is being used contrary to the pur-
poses of the data system;
(B) defining the steps necessary for deter-
mining whether, and how, to deny or restrict
access to the data system; and
(C) determining the steps necessary to re-
open access to the data system following a
denial or restriction of access; and
(7) preventing access to the data system and
any other system used to administer a pro-
gram under this subchapter by any person or
entity for the purpose of assisting a student in
managing loan repayment or applying for any
repayment plan, consolidation loan, or other
benefit authorized by this subchapter, unless
such access meets the requirements described
in subsection (e).
