NAVIGATING THE STUDENT LOAN PAYMENT RE-START WITH CONFIDENCE


 

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2022

5:00 PM PT


AOAExcel Free Student Loan Workshop for AOA members

On August 24, the federal government announced the extension of the student loan payment holiday through December 31, 2022, along with a relief plan for up to $10,000 in student loan forgiveness (up to $20,000 for Pell Grant recipients) for individual borrowers making less than $125,000.  
This means, thousands of AOA members may be required to resume payment and may begin accruing interest on federal student loans for the first time in over 2 years. AOAExcel has teamed up with Laurel Road to provide a free workshop to assist AOA members in navigating the end of the student loan payment holiday.

This live-event workshop will cover topics such as:

  • How ODs can position their student loans during interest rate uncertainty
  • What the federal student loan payment & interest pause means for ODs
  • Explanation of the federal student loan forgiveness as it pertains to ODs
  • What is student loan refinancing – are you eligible? Could you save by refinancing? Will refinancing affect your credit score?
  • How AOA members can save up to 0.25% by refinancing with Laurel Road2
AOA members are encouraged to bring their own individual questions about student loans and have them answered live during the workshop. AOAExcel will also be giving away an attendance prize of a Nike Dri-Fit® Zip-Up!
