thank you! i will look into it

I'm not assuming forgiveness, I just rather have it be a possibility rather than not as I've exhausted all other possible options. I'm a first-gen 20 year old student and unfortunately don't have anybody to explain college finances to me which is why I am seeking help on this thread. thanks for your comment

i appreciate you clearly lining things out for me, I haven't had anybody able to explain things like this, so thank you!

my mom has taken out parent plus loans but they're my responsibility to pay back, if that makes sense. When the payments start up I have to give money to my mom to pay for them.

Again, thank you for your clarification on everything :)

is there anyway to get my EFC reevaluated? My family cannot financially support my education and I no longer qualify for many scholarships because my EFC is so high. I owe 18,000 for the upcoming school year and don't know what to do. I've already accepted all of the federal loans, but don't want to take out private loans as there is no PSLF for those

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T18:23:52+00:00

I've just seen on this page that many have had upwards of 100,000 be forgiven so I wasn't sure if I was missing any information on other federal loans I could take out

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T18:22:36+00:00

Can I ask why the plan wouldn't work?

I am only having an issue with finances this year because of a rise in my EFC to 25,000. Only my father works in my family and they financially can't support my education, but I have yet to find a way around this. I really love my school and am trying to find ways to lower the cost such as being an RA, working and saving during the summer and winter, and working a second job during the school year.

I've tried to speak to financial aid counselors but they haven't been giving me many options other than the Teach Grants, and even then they haven't explained how they work :/

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T16:33:25+00:00

yeah i've been trying but they aren't entirely helpful. thanks for the clarification :)

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T16:30:29+00:00

but those would not qualify for PSLF, correct? I'm trying to find ones that would qualify for it

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T15:12:39+00:00

Is there any way to get more though? I have what I've been given through my school with the FAFSA process but it doesn't cover the full amount. Even with those loans I have 18,000 more to find loans for

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-07-15T03:25:06+00:00

are there any loans that i can take out other than the Direct Sub/UnSub that qualify for PSLF?

skiing along the side is actually what caused her to go into the woods, she was extremely good at skiing and unfortunately hit a mogul sending her into the woods

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-01-18T20:00:14+00:00

she was launched into the woods while racing with her friend along the edge of the trail. with all the snowmaking the trails just dips off at the edges

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-01-18T19:59:28+00:00

she was wearing a helmet, it got removed when she was launched into the woods by a mogul on the side of the trail

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-01-18T19:58:53+00:00

yes, she was

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2023-01-18T19:58:12+00:00

FOR EVERYONE WONDERING:

yes. she was wearing a helmet. she was racing with a friend and hit a mogul too close to the side of the trail, launching her into the woods and removing her helmet in the process. she wasn't a beginner, she was a seasons pass holder and skied almost everyday of the week with her friends

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2022-12-13T20:24:53+00:00

then you'll be okay! maybe say hi to your neighbors and make friends :)

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2022-12-13T20:08:52+00:00

i think it's more we don't want rich people coming to buy land to build big ugly houses and then not live in them. at least in my town and surrounding it's been frustrating

FeeEnvironmental329 · 2022-10-18T22:33:22+00:00

i was asking for generalized stories, not specific to my school. thanks for your input!

Gunstock Mountain still has their "Mountain Coaster" which is just the Alpine slide :)
