Yesterday, Nov. 9, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC) to suspend collection efforts on student loan repayments for borrowers living in counties affected by Hurricane Sandy.

Members of the military called in to assist with the recovery efforts will also be eligible for this student loan relief.
