This is a common misconception about these programs. Though working in public service considerably shortens your term, working in the private sector does not disqualify you by any means at all. Please beware of your current lender falsely telling you that only Teachers, Military, or Non-profit Employees are the only individuals eligible for relief under Then William D. Ford Act.
As long as you enroll today, your loans will remain current and in good standing and you’ll be more than eligible to return to school and take out additional loans. The additional loans will also qualify to be added into your forgiveness program.
Yes you may enroll in the program yourself however it is very common for applicants to make mistakes while navigating the government websites for these types of enrollments. This could result in getting denied, your application expiring, or being placed in the wrong program which does not give you optimal results.
