For borrowers who filed for bankruptcy after October 7, 1998, a Federal student loan is not dischargeable in bankruptcy unless the bankruptcy court has determined that repayment would cause an undue hardship to the debtor. A loan is no longer dischargeable in bankruptcy no matter how long it has been in repayment.
Loans can also be discharged (canceled) if you cannot complete a course of study because the school closed or the loan application was falsely certified.
