Can you receive your diploma before paying off entire loan?

Yes, you can generally receive your diploma even if you haven't paid off your student loans in full. The awarding of a diploma is separate from your financial obligations to the lender. However, your university might place a hold on your transcript or other official documents until your loans are settled (or a payment plan is in place). This means you might not be able to get an official copy of your diploma or transcript to apply for jobs or further education, but you will still have received the diploma itself.
