Quincy, MA (PRWEB) August 17, 2005

The 2005-2006 school year has begun – or at least the bills have begun to arrive – with no significant changes in federal financial aid. The 2004 Presidential Election cycle pushed back the Congressional re-authorization of the Higher Education Act, which means that students who were hoping for an increase in federal financial aid will have to wait until the next academic year for any changes by Congress. As a result, students, parents, and families who need financial aid to cover education expenses are increasingly turning to alternative student loans to bridge the gap between unchanging federal financial aid and increasing tuition bills.

Christopher S. Penn, director of AlternativeStudentLoan.com commented, “The education industry expected that there would be no changes in federal financial aid during 2004 due to the election. Neither party wanted to make major changes in education funding that could backfire and be used as political ammunition during the election, so federal financial aid to students, parents, and families remains unchanged for the new academic year. As many hardworking families know, tuition bills can arrive as soon as August for the new school year.”

Alternative student loans offer competitive interest rates and borrowers can receive loan proceeds in as little as five business days after the loan is approved. AlternativeStudentLoan.com loan proceeds are sent straight to the borrower, which allows borrowers to pay tuition bills quickly, avoiding delays and frustration at registration time. Additionally, since alternative student loans are credit-based, more families can qualify for them, compared to need- based financial aid.

“One important fact that cannot be emphasized enough is that students generally don’t have enough of a credit history – good or bad – to obtain a private student loan on their own. Students who want to apply for a private student loan should do so with a co-signer, who can be any parent, relative, colleague, friend, or associate with two years of full time employment, two years of good credit history, and two years of citizenship or permanent residency in the United States. Even people on fixed incomes like retired citizens can be excellent co-signers, and help the next generation achieve their full education potential,” said Penn.

Penn noted that the Federal Subsidized Stafford Loan remains capped at $ 2,625 per year for freshmen undergraduates, while private student loans for freshmen, with approved cosigners, can provide up to $ 30,000 in additional funds for the rest of the school year.

Undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education students can apply for alternative student loans at http://www.AlternativeStudentLoan.com at any time; students are strongly encouraged to have a co-signer.

Parents of K-12 students can also apply for private school loans at http://www.AlternativeStudentLoan.com as well. Students

and families can also apply by phone by calling toll-free (866) 229-8900.

Contact Christopher S. Penn at cspenn@AlternativeStudentLoan.com for more information. AlternativeStudentLoan.com is a division of the Edvisors Network, a multi-national education services company offering students options for managing the entire education lifecycle, from getting into their college of choice to financing their education and beyond. The Edvisors Network is based in Quincy, Massachusetts, with offices in Quincy and London, England. Visit them on the web at http://www.EdvisorsNetwork.com for more information.

Prestige Financial Solutions

Denver, CO (PRWEB) July 28, 2011

Whether you are a student returning to school or a parent sending your children to school, there are costs associated with furthering one’s education. Tuition, books, supplies, housing, etc… all add up and can cause a major strain on a family’s finances. Many students and parents of students have turned to using credit cards to help cover educational expenses when traditional student financing does not go far enough. Below are some common methods of paying for your education, a list of consequences one may endure if you default on your student loans, and some tips from Prestige Financial Solutions on how to take control of your rising credit card debt.

Resources for students

1.    FAFSA, Free Application for Federal Student Aid, to find out if you qualify for government-funded loans or grants. Parents may also qualify for the Parent Plus loan from the government.

2.    Apply for “private” student loans through Sallie Mae or other banks. Be cautious: even many so-called “private” student loans are government-funded.

3.    Ask your student advisor or your school’s financial advisor for reputable websites where you can apply for scholarships.

4.    Save, save, save to pay cash for school.

Stay on top of your student loans! Repercussions of defaulting include but are not limited to:

1.    Wage garnishment without a court order

2.    Suspension of state professional licenses

3.    Garnishment of social security/disability income

4.    Withholding IRS tax refunds

If your debt to income ratio is too high, here are some tips to help you achieve debt relief:

1.    Create a monthly budget by reviewing income and expenses to determine how much you can afford to pay toward your credit card bills. You can use the debt calculator on our website (listed below) for additional help.

2.    Once your budget has been determined, you can explore your options, such as:

    Pay creditors more than the minimum amounts.
    Get a consolidation loan to pay off all cards.
    Explore credit card counseling programs to see if they can reduce your principle while maintaining an affordable monthly payment.
    Research debt relief programs, and look specifically for programs that do not charge upfront fees and can eliminate your principle balance within 36 months or less.
    Declare bankruptcy; a last resort due to length and cost of the process and the effect it will have on your financial well-being.

Prestige Financial Solution strongly recommends that students consult with a debt advisor to help assess their situation and further explain options. To find reputable companies who may be able to help you, visit the Better Business Bureau’s website. Consumers should be well-informed and ask questions, as there are pros and cons to each option.

“Anxiety caused by credit card debt can be a highly emotional situation and people need to be sure they’re working with a reputable, established company that has their best interests in mind,” said Amy Thompson, a founder of Prestige Financial Solutions.

Prestige Financial Solutions is one of the nation’s leading pay-as-you-go debt settlement programs. The program can be found online at http://www.prestigefinancialsolutions.com or by calling 800.441.7297.

AppliPak College Preparation Guide and Organizer

Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) July 29, 2011

When is the best time for high school students to start planning for college? According to a survey conducted by College Sherpa LLC, the majority of families don’t start the planning process until the junior year of high school.    Although the actual application for admission doesn’t typically happen until the senior year, college planning is a four-year process. Students can make choices as early as their freshman year that can impact their options for higher education. Early visibility and planning can reduce the anxiety that parents have about college choices, testing, applications and financial aid. Parents can assist their children in working through these life decisions with the new AppliPak® College Preparation Guide and Organizer. AppliPak contains worksheets that help students plan their high school curriculum, set goals and monitor extracurricular activities. Students and parents can work together through the entire preparation, selection, application and financial aid process with the tools and resources provided in AppliPak.

Many families rely on the high school counseling office to facilitate the college planning process. However, the National Association for College Admissions Counseling reports that on average, the student-to-counselor ration is 457:1. With only 180 days in a school year, it’s difficult for a counselor to provide detailed college planning assistance to students. AppliPak gives students the tools and resources to follow and manage the process themselves and make counselor meetings more productive.

“I saw a need for the do-it-yourselfer parents and students who feel they can get through the college planning maze without hiring a consultant,” said Mitch Clark, owner of College Sherpa, an independent college planning consultant and author of AppliPak. “There are many questions and levels of anxiety about the process people have that I’ve addressed in AppliPak. I’ve also taken the experiences of my clients and incorporated them into the design of AppliPak. Organization is usually a big problem; even with all of the online resources, the process is still paper-heavy and families find having one place to store college planning materials very helpful. Every student, even siblings in a family, approaches college preparation and planning differently. AppliPak allows each student to use it however it fits their needs.”

AppliPak not only provides a roadmap for each year of high school, but also provides worksheets and checklists to guide students through the many aspects of college planning. The information is contained in a durable plastic case binder that helps students keep all of their college planning information organized.

About AppliPak®

Checklists, roadmaps and worksheets help you plan and stay on track with college preparation.

San Diego, California (PRWEB) September 23, 2011

The attorneys at Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik filed a complaint against the Regents of the University of California on September 16, 2011 alleging that it is unconstitutional to charge students who are residents of California higher tuition rates because they rely on out of state financial aid from their families. Lambert v. Regents of the University of California, Case No. 11cv2166 is currently pending in the Southern District of California.

The plaintiff in the lawsuit against UC Regents is a California resident. In order to help pay for college, the UC student relies on the financial support of family that does not reside in California. Since the financial aid is coming from an out of state person, the California school system charged the plaintiff the a higher tuition rate even though the plaintiff is a California resident..

In the higher tuition rate complaint filed against the UC Regents, the Plaintiff asserts that “California Education Code §§ 68000 et seq., by creating classes of California Citizens based upon financial independence and strength of familial ties outside of California, is unconstitutional on its face and in application…” According to the lawsuit, the UC Regents current scheme of charging more tuition to in state students who rely on out of state parents for financial aid “forces students to choose between a constitutionally protected right to free and unobstructed relations with family members and the constitutionally protected right to become a citizen of California on equal terms as all other California residents thereby denying residents due process by creating an irrebuttable presumption of nonresidence.”

In 1999, the attorneys at Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik won a similar lawsuit against the Department of Motor Vehicles claiming that it was unconstitutional to charge out of state drivers a smog impact fee of $ 300 in a case entitled Jordan v. DMV, Case No. Cal.App.4th 449 (1999). In 2001, the Department of Motor Vehicles refunded over a billion dollars to out of state drivers who were assessed a smog impact fee as a result of Jordan v. DMV.

For more information about the UC school system higher tuition rate lawsuit call (866) 771-7099 or visit the Higher Out of State Tuition for California Residents Website.

The San Diego employment lawyers at Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik represent employees in actions involving illegal employment law practices and policies.

Chester, PA (PRWEB) July 9, 2006

It is not a secret that the number of minority students attending graduate school is low. One of the main reasons for this under-representation is that minority students are not made aware of the many educational and financial aid opportunities available to them. GradPortal.org, a minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory, looks to change all that.

Powered by GradSchools.com, the leading online provider of graduate school information, GradPortal.org is a free directory of graduate school programs geared directly toward minority students. The minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory also offers information on financial aid as well as advice on preparing for and surviving graduate school.

“There are hundreds of thousands of students out there who could add so much to this society but are never given the chance,” says Mark Shay, president and CEO of GradSchools.com. “Our hope is that this new minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory will reveal opportunities that these students never realized were open to them, and will help them attend the school of their dreams and further their education.”

The site is still growing, and plans are in place to add additional reference articles and firsthand journal entries of those who are attending or have completed grad school, as well as a powerful mentoring program where current and future grad students can learn from each other. If you feel you could contribute something to the minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory, contact Stefanie Altman at 610-499-9200 or via e-mail at stefanie@gradschools.com.

GradSchools.com

GradSchools.com is the Internet’s leading source of graduate school information. It helps students find their ideal graduate school through a comprehensive directory of colleges and programs organized by subject, school and location. Gradschools.com is a service of Educational Directories Unlimited (EDU), a leading Internet company serving higher education. Based in suburban Philadelphia, EDU’s steady growth since its inception in 1989 has led to its inclusion in the Philadelphia 100, Inc. Magazine/ICIC Inner City 100 and Inc. 500 lists of fast growing businesses.
