Surviving Your Student Loan – New Service For Ohio College Students

Students in Ohio have a new website and service to help them learn about student loans.

The folks from Student Lending Works has created a new website for College students in Ohio. This new website is called MyStudentLoansDontOwnMe.Org

What Is Student Lending Works?

Student Lending Works (www.StudentLendingWorks.org) is Ohio’s nonprofit provider of student loan products. The organization’s activities include financing of affordable student loans that provide unmatched choice and discounts.

 What Does The Student Loan Crash Course Offer?

With this service, Ohio students can have a Student Loan Crash Course instructor come in and present a course so students can stay informed on changes to their Federal Student Loans.

These seminars are titled “A Crash Course In Surviving Your Student Loans“. These seminars are free to all Ohio college students. The seminars are designed to educate Ohio students about the new College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007 and how it may affect their student loans.

The website allows Ohio students to meet the Crash Course instructors and to find out more information on the seminars.

Miranda Ast, a Crash Course Instructor, had this to say about the web site;

“One of the benefits of the site is that we don’t require students to sign up for anything on the Web site or at the presentation. And we don’t try to sell them anything. Because we have a mission to the State of Ohio, we’re here to be a free educational resource to students.”

Student loan programs change at a fast pace and many students don’t have the time or skills to keep up with the changes. These free seminars will help them stay up-to-date and help prevent them from making costly mistakes.

Although Student Lending Works always encourages students to keep up with these ever changing requirements with the financial office of the college they are attending, the seminars puts a lot of the much needed information at their fingertips in a easy-to-digest format.
