If your current LRP contract will be ending in the next year and you still have qualified educational debt to be repaid, learn about submitting a renewal application. You should apply for a renewal during the application cycle for the fiscal year in which your current contract will end. For example, if your current LRP contract ends in June 2014, you would apply during the application cycle that begins on September 1, 2013.
