Are there teacher loan forgiveness programs in Washington?
For specific questions regarding eligibility for teacher loan forgiveness, you must contact the entity that holds your loan. OSPI is responsible for managing the list that is sent to the U.S. Department of Education with schools that are eligible based on their free and reduced lunch percentage. OSPI does NOT process, approve or deny the loan forgiveness application. OSPI compiles a list of schools that are eligible for Title I and have a free and reduced lunch percentage of 30% or higher. This list is then sent to the U.S. Department of Education and can be accessed at: Teacher Cancellation Low Income Directory. Please remember to use the School District’s name when filling in the “location” category. The search looks by School District not by city. Also, leaving the “school name” category blank will bring up all of the schools in the district you are looking for. Once you have determined that your school is on the list for loan forgiveness, you can download the Teacher Loan Forgivene
