As balances are identified and the decision to use a private education loan is made, questions that need answers are: When should I apply and in what amount? What information is needed? What is the process and timeline? What happens after approval? If denied, where do I go from there? Never fear, PHEAA is here to help increase your knowledge and create a comfort level with this journey. Join Dan Wray and Linda Pacewicz from PHEAA for the answers and more to increase your knowledge on using private education loans.

It’s crunch time. The semester bill I received from the school has a tight deadline. The format of the bill looks different from the aid offer I received a while back. Are there any costs I need to plan for that aren’t showing up on the bill? And what happened to the Federal Work-Study award? Will I need to borrow? If so, how much? What loan programs are available? Join financial aid experts Linda Pacewicz and Dan Wray of PHEAA for a 1-hour webinar where these questions will be answered. Let’s take a deep dive into covering the gap.
TIME: Noon (ET)
I’ve done everything right so far: Found the perfect school, made it through the admissions process, filed my Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®), filed my PA State Grant, applied for scholarships, researched higher education costs, and calculated my funding gap. Now that I can see an education loan is a necessity, where do I go from here? What loan programs are available? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the various types? Join financial aid experts Dan Wray and Linda Pacewicz of PHEAA for a 1-hour webinar to review the different borrowing options and examine the details associated with each option. Linda and Dan will answer your questions as you sort out the information and make decisions that are right for you and your family.

There are many ways to pay for education, and one important step is to search and apply for scholarships. More free money equals less borrowing. This presentation will review the types of options available, along with tips on applying. It will also offer samples of fun scholarship options to get you started. We’ll then review what to do about the balances that might be left over in order to make affordable higher education decisions.
