No, unpaid loans are not really a criminal issue to involve extradition. However, did anyone cosign these loans with you, or provide collateral? And the banks might be able to screw around with your credit ratings and etc. even over in Amsterdam. Banks are all international nowadays.
ANd are you ever going to come back to the USA? Cause they'll be waiting for you. Try and inherit something from the USA. The banks will get it.

Even if they can, I don't think they would - unless you owe a HUGE amount of money. I wouldn't leave them unpaid though. That's going to screw up your credit no matter where you live, and you'll never get a loan again, or be able to buy a house, or a car, or some jobs (a lot of jobs check your credit now).

American Citizens living abroad are still required to file tax returns, and the federal government would still have any refund due to you being offset to the student loan. As a U.S. expatriate residing abroad, you still owe U.S. taxes each year on your worldwide income! The stories you hear from some of your fellow expatriates sitting next to you at the bar that once you leave the U.S., you no longer owe any taxes. That is true for citizens of some countries, but not of the U.S. Its even against the law to give up your U.S. citizenship in order to avoid U.S. taxes!

it will haunt you. people think that unpaid bills don't follow you to another country but they do.

Probably not, but, if you can afford to move there, why not pay your loans?
