 TITLE: What Is Student Loan Rehabilitation? CONTENT: Staying out of Default\n----------------------\nRehabilitating student loans is a worthwhile way to restore your credit and bounce back from the ongoing financial stress of default. So once you've made the effort to rehabilitate your loans, keeping them in good standing should be a top priority.\nPayment history is the most important factor in your credit score, and the more on-time payments you make going forward, the lower the impact your prior missed payments will have on your score. Successfully rehabilitating a defaulted loan is a major accomplishment; let yourself feel proud and relieved, and resolve to continue that positive behavior for the remainder of your loan term, and beyond.
