Code of Conduct for Education Loans

Administrator Code of Conduct
The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 (HEOA) requires that institutions participating in the federal student loan programs develop, publish and enforce a code of conduct regarding student loans. The Mount Mary University code of conduct prohibits a conflict of interest with the responsibilities of financial aid administrators of the school with the respect of Federal Direct or private education loans. All financial aid administrators with responsibility for loans must be informed annually of the provisions of the code. The code of conduct prohibits the following activities:

• Contracting arrangement providing financial benefit from any lender or affiliate of a lender
• Directing borrowers to particular lenders, or refusing or delaying loan certifications
