Unfortunately, every year we witness students and families experience what it means to have a financial balance when starting school.

It doesn’t help that the options for student loans have become stricter. This is where we come in.

Instead of rushing to get into more student loan debt, we encourage and support students to take a step back to apply for free money and prepare for a future with less debt.

Parents — here’s something most people don’t know about Parent PLUS loans. Your student has access to RAP, the new income-based repayment plan. You don’t. Parent PLUS borrowers are limited to the Tiered Standard Plan only if borrowing after July 1st— a fixed payment that doesn’t adjust for job loss, income changes, or retirement. Know this BEFORE you borrow, not after. Full breakdown in our new YouTube video.👇

Parents: the Parent PLUS interest rate for 2026–27 is 9.07% — fixed, plus a 4.228% origination fee taken off the top. That’s HIGHER than the rate your own student pays on their federal loans (6.52%). Borrow $20K and you could owe $9-10K in interest alone. Run the numbers before you sign — full breakdown in my bio. 👇

Do you already have student loans?

The new law changes affect you too.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act impacts can impact you in a 3 ways.
1. If you are currently in school or plan to enroll in school and borrow federal loans on or after July 1, 2026.
2. You are on an ineligible or discontinuing repayment plan (SAVE, PAYE or ICR)
3. You borrowed before July 1, 2026 and may be eligible for legacy status or interim exception.

All three ways mean you have decisions to make.

Have you done a financial aid appeal?

Many students don’t realize that they are leaving money on the table - just because they haven’t asked for more.

Your families financial status may have changed from the tax year used to file your FAFSA (which is 2 years ago). So it there was income/job loss, medical expenses or unfortunate family loss - so can ask for a review.

Also, if another school that is similar to your 1st choice offers you more - you can also appeal.

You know what they say - closed mouths don’t get fed.
