Per curiam.

James E. Nicholson, Jr. pled guilty to two felony counts contained in a criminal information in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Both counts alleged that Nicholson submitted loan applications for federally insured student loans in which he claimed to be a full time student, whereas in truth he was not. By use of the affidavits he obtained loans.

The State Disciplinary Board recommended that Nicholson’s pe[*747]tition for voluntary discipline in the form of surrender of his license to practice law be granted. This recommendation is approved.
