How do you remove student loans from your credit report

While you generally can't remove student loans from a credit report unless there are errors, it isn't a bad thing if you make payments on time. If a loan is delinquent, it will be removed from your credit report after seven years, though you will still be responsible for paying back the loan.

Do student loans go away after 7 years? Student loans don't go away after seven years. There is no program for loan forgiveness or cancellation after seven years. But if you recently checked your credit report and are wondering, “why did my student loans disappear?” The answer is that you have defaulted student loans.
