With student loan repayment on the horizon, borrowers and schools will be dealing with a much different landscape of repayment than past trends could predict. The CARES Act has afforded some relief to all student loan borrowers by bringing them current and pausing payments.

Understanding the ramifications of mass student loan repayment resumption on borrowers is critical to helping them proactively prepare for, and successfully navigate, these unprecedented impacts. In this session, we will talk about the challenges this presents from the student and school perspective, along with recommendations to ease the strain.

To say that student loan repayment has seen a lot of changes this year is an understatement! It’s a lot to digest for fin aid pros, let alone graduating students or those who are preparing to finally enter repayment after a nearly three-year hiatus. Inceptia can help by providing expert guidance and plain language info to decode student loan repayment.

In this student-centered session, we will cover what you absolutely need to know about repayment, including:

• Newly announced (Nov. 22) extension to the repayment pause
• Changes to loan repayment plans and forgiveness options
• How to save time and money throughout the life of loan repayment
• How to choose a repayment plan that fits individual lifestyles and income
• Options to avoid default and delinquency

This free webinar is a great way for students (and staff!) to hear exit counseling concepts and have questions answered by an expert. We encourage you to extend this invitation to anyone who may benefit from this valuable session.

Spoiler alert: we are all spending much more time online than ever before, even conducting work that was previously believed to only be effective when done face-to-face. While technology and the internet have made the impossible possible, there is also a danger for all of us – but especially students – to subconsciously consume negative messaging.

In a social media world that prizes bigger, better, prettier and more popular, the fear of missing out (FOMO) is wreaking havoc on mental, emotional, AND financial wellbeing.

In this session, we’ll discuss the very real consequences of FOMO, the effects of social media on spending and saving, and how we can inform and empower students to resist.
