Inceptia is helping Gwinnett Technical College Prepare Students for Repayment Press Release Inceptia is helping Gwinnett Technical College Prepare Students for Repayment Lincoln, Neb. (March 14, 2023) – Inceptia is pleased to announce Gwinnett Technical College (GTC) has selected Inceptia to offer student loan repayment counseling and outreach services with Repayment Counseling Outreach. Even though Federal student loan repayment is still on hold, once it resumes it will have been more than three years since students have even thought about repayment, making it more important than ever they have access to resources that help them navigate the complexities of student loan repayment and avoid default. "We've recently wrapped up a couple of projects using the Student Outreach Programs from Inceptia, where we welcomed more returning students to our school and a very positive return on our investment. Inceptia's student advocate counselors were able to connect with our students and treat them with the same care we do. Continuing our work by implementing Repayment Counseling Outreach will ensure that Gwinnett Technical College students are well-informed about their loan repayment options and have access to the tools and resources they need to manage their student loan debt successfully," said Dr. Kohle Paul, Vice President, Student Affairs. Students who receive student loan counseling are more likely to make timely payments and avoid defaulting on their loans. Inceptia's Repayment Counseling Outreach connects with students to help them understand their repayment options and choose the best repayment plan for their unique circumstances, ultimately setting them up for a better chance of financial success. Paul adds, "GTC is planning ahead for what is to come with our students' well-being in mind. We want them to be prepared no matter what repayment looks like for them." We're looking forward to working with Gwinnett Technical College to support their students in achieving financial wellness and success through this partnership. Inceptia's commitment to providing student loan repayment counseling and outreach services will not only benefit the students of GTC, but also contribute to the larger goal of promoting financial literacy and reducing student loan debt defaults across the country.

Connecting the FAFSA Dots We know summer melt is a reality – that time between high school graduation and the fall semester, or the spring and fall semesters when students who have otherwise completed most major hurdles to get or return to college mysteriously fall off the radar. It could be just one incomplete task that throws a student off course. According to NCAN research, the first roadblock is that many of these students may not even know that the FAFSA is an option, usually because they: Are first-gen college-goers and/or may go to a school that lacks resources to provide this information. Have the misconception they are not eligible for aid because of their credit. Think aid only consists of loans and they are averse to taking on debt. Think the FAFSA is too complicated. What it really comes down to for most of the 45% of non-filers is that they are lacking FAFSA education. For the 2021 high school class, FAFSA completion is still down 8.2% from last year. Promoting the benefits of early FAFSA completion is a purposeful connection to make with your students so they know it’s an option. Completion then leads to awarding financial aid, answering more in-depth questions, allowing time for school decisions and planning, and verification if they should be chosen. Learn more about FAFSA Completion Outreach. Connecting with Students to Impact Decision Making Connecting with students during critical decision-making times can be the difference between if, when, and how they take their next steps in their educational career. Proactive outreach solutions can help you reduce melt and student anxiety while promoting school connections and enrollment. To give you a head start, we’ve developed targeted outreach plans to help you deliver specific messages to your students and prospective students depending on where they are in their college career. New & Returning Students – Communicate reminders of important next steps and deadlines. Withdrawn Students – Encourage return, determine intent and gather data. Verification Completion – Emphasize the importance of verification completion and answer questions. Summer School Attendance – Promote benefits of summer school attendance.
