Equal Justice Works’ Student Loan Debt Resources and November Webinars
by Ashley Matthews, PSJD Fellow
If you’re trying to get a handle on student loans, check out this message from our friends at Equal Justice Works! They’ve got incredibly helpful resources and upcoming webinars (one is this Thursday, so mark your calendars):
The weather is cooling rapidly, but for many recent graduates things are heating up. That’s because many of them are at the end of their six-month grace period and entering repayment on their student loans.
Tempting though it is, this is not a good time for avoidance. If you or anyone you know is entering repayment, here’s a good overview of the steps you should be taking to manage your loans.
You should also check out our comprehensive e-book, Take Control of Your Future. It has the scoop on income-driven repayment plans that can reduce your monthly payments exactly how to earn ten-year Public Service Loan Forgiveness.
Last but not least, don’t forget about our free webinars. Our upcoming sessions are:
- Thursday, November 14, 3-4 p.m. EDT: What Every Public Interest Attorney Should Know About Student Debt Relief and Forgiveness
- Thursday, November 21, 3-4 p.m. EDT: Drowning in Debt? How Government and Nonprofit Workers Can Earn Public Service Loan Forgiveness
If you’re interested in keeping up to date on the student loan debate, don’t forget to check out the Student Loan Ranger. Last month we discussed the recently released ABA draft report on reforming law schools, looked at how the newly proposed gainful employment regulations could affect students, and delved into a new report that sheds light on why everyone dislikes Sallie Mae.
