Unpaid Student Loan Debt

by Thomas C.
(Raleigh, NC)

I attended Central Michigan University from '97-'00. In this time I received student loans. How do I find out the exact amounts I received and the date I received them? How do I find out how much interest has accrued? How can I find out how much I have paid towards it, including tax refunds. I need to know all of this information and who to contact in order to take care of this since I have not paid on my student loans in nearly 8 years.

Also how long do student loans appear on your credit report?
