The nine individuals are charged with exceeding authorized computer access.
They are accused of gaining access to a computer at a Coralville, Iowa, office where they worked between July 2007 and March 2009, and accessing Obama's student loan records while he was either a candidate for president, president-elect or president.
Arraignments are scheduled for May 24.
The charge is punishable by up to one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000.
