If you have a college freshman this fall you are probably looking over the first tuition bill statement and wondering how to decipher the loan offers. The U.S. Department of Education has put together a nice recap of the Direct Plus Loan program that can be quite helpful.
Also on July 31, from noon to 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time (3:00 to 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) the FSA (Federal Student Aid) will host a webinar regarding Direct PLUS loans. Current students, parents, borrowers, and college access professionals are welcome to register. The webinar will cover: the process for completing a Direct PLUS loan application for parents or graduate and professional students; how to avoid student loan default; options for postponing payment; and choosing a repayment plan. There will also be a live question-and-answer chat. Sign up today!
