How to lower your student debt – and cut through misconceptions around it
FILE - New graduates line up before the start of a community college commencement in East Rutherford, N.J., on May 17, 2018. The Supreme Court struck down the Biden administration’s plan to forgive up to $20,000 of student loan debt per borrower, yet loan forgiveness is still possible for those pursuing Public Service Loan Forgiveness or income-driven repayment forgiveness. A one-time account adjustment that began in July 2023 is still ongoing and gives credit for certain periods of deferment, forbearance or default that normally wouldn’t count toward forgiveness.
