Money Matters: Student Loan Strategies for Creative Professionals (ET)

Workshop Hours: 12–1:30 pm ET / 11 am–12:30 pm CT / 9–10:30 am PT

This workshop is offered nationally. Please adjust for your time zone.

Federal student loan payments will resume in October. Despite the Supreme Court decision on broad-based loan cancellation, there are many programs still available to student loan borrowers. Whether you're just starting to repay your loans or seeking ways to optimize your current repayment plan, this single-session webinar is your ultimate guide to conquering your student loans with confidence as a creative professional.

Featuring the Education Debt Consumer Assistance Program (EDCAP), this session covers the most up-to-date information about various student loan repayment options and explores federal forgiveness programs and other relief initiatives. We will discuss the answers to questions like…

  • What will happen when federal student loan payments resume? 
  • How do I enroll in an income-driven plan if I don’t know what my income will be? 
  • Will I qualify for loan forgiveness, and what do I need to do to get it? 
  • What are my options when it comes to private student loans?

Learn how to avoid common mistakes that may result in paying more on your student loan debt and/or paying longer than is necessary! This event includes extensive Q&A with the presenters and opportunities for individual support through our partnership with EDCAP.
