Financial Aid: Financial Literacy

Welcome to the Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine’s Financial Literacy Resource Page. This page contains the link to complete your Federal Exit Counseling session required by the Department of Education along with other resources and links to assist you in managing loan repayment.

Before you begin your exit counseling session, make sure you have your Sallie Mae Manage Your Loans user I.D. and password. If you have not logged on to Manage Your Loans to view your loan portfolio, the session will prompt you to create one before you begin.
