FAP622: Consequences of student loan legislation, mail bag, Brian Setzer Orchestra
FAP622: Consequences of student loan legislation, mail bag, Brian Setzer Orchestra Student Financial Aid News + Chronicle : With the threat of a presidential veto no longer looming, members of Congress gave final approval on Friday to legislation that would provide the largest increase in federal student aid since the GI Bill. + The compromise bill, which would slash government subsidies to student-loan companies and use the savings to reduce the federal deficit, raise the maximum Pell Grant, and halve the interest rate on subsidized student loans, cleared both chambers easily, 79 to 12 in the Senate and 292 to 97 in the House of Representatives. + In an effort to appease the president, lawmakers scaled back the number of new programs, from 10 to four, and raised the maximum Pell Grant to $5,400, the level contained in his budget request. But they did nothing to control the bill's price tag, which ballooned from $18-billion to nearly $21-billion in the compromise version. + That cost would be borne entirely by lenders, which would see their federal subsidies shrink for the second time in two years. Under the bill, the subsidy rate for for-profit lenders would be cut by 0.55 percent, while the subsidy rate for nonprofit lenders would be trimmed by 0.35 percent. + At the same time, the bill would double the origination fees that lenders pay the government on loans they make, to 1 percent, and reduce the amount of money that the government reimburses most lenders for loans that go into default, from 97 cents to 95 cents of every dollar that is unpaid. It would also end a practice of rewarding lenders designated as "exceptional performers" with a default-reimbursement rate that is two percentage points higher. + NASFAA : "Student loan company Nelnet Inc. (ticker: NNI) said Thursday will have to eliminate 400 jobs because of new lending rules before Congress that would cut back on federal subsidies for student aid," the Associated Press reports. "Nelnet plans to cut expenses by at least $25 million annually and the cuts announced Thursday represent more than 12 percent of the company's 3,300 employees. Nelnet Chairman and CEO Mike Dunlap said the company is changing its approach to the student loan business because of the changes Congress is expected to approve." + Some early signs of things to come - two prominent lenders, Sallie Mae (ticker: SLM) and NextStudent, have shifted the vast majority of their marketing to higher profit private student loans, in one case not even offering federal student loans as an option + Aggressive advertisements for student loan consolidation - and yes, we're telling you too, borrower benefits are likely to no longer be available after October 1. + On an upbeat note, PodCamp Philly this weekend was a fantastic event! Scholarship Update + The A. Patrick Charnon Memorial Scholarship helps students afford high quality undergraduate education in their chosen fields of study. Recipients must be admitted or enrolled in a full-time undergraduate program of study in an accredited four-year college or university in the United States. They must maintain good academic standing and make progress toward a degree. The Charnon Scholarship Review Committee will decide whether applicants fulfill the requirements of the award. The selection committee looks for candidates who value tolerance, compassion and respect for all people in their communities, and who have demonstrated their commitments to these values by their actions. + $1,500 scholarship + Details at our free college scholarship search site Mail Bag + AJ writes in: I have a big fav to ask, my sister is going back to school after years of being out, she is 46 and is looking for aid to help her get threw collage, she has separated from her husband and is raising a child on her own in Dubuque Iowa. + File the FAFSA first and see what eligibility she has + Check out the listings for women and non-traditional student scholarships + Borrow Stafford federal student loans from StaffordLoan.com + Borrow private student loans from ActEducationLoans.com + Julie writes in: I'm hoping you can help me find a resource.

I'm not currently a student anywhere, and I'd take my 11 year old son with me. I need to find a college or universitsy either in the US or Italy that would accept Title IV monies in payment for tuition, without me being enrolled in a degree program. I also don't need college credit, and that isn't a requirement for the scholarship from AmeriCorps (though I don't care if they want to give me credit.) I'm having trouble finding schools to accomodate my needs. Can you help? + Title IV funding requires you to be enrolled in a degree granting program at least half time or more + Fernando writes in: + At the university I'm attending, you get back whatever was left over after paying the semester's costs. Some of the money I got back was a federal loan, and I wanted to know which would be smarter: + 1. Return all or part of the loan to the govt. + 2. Or put that money into a high interest saving account (e.g., savings account, Certificate of Deposit) + You've got to beat the loan's interest rate plus inflation. Using core inflation of 3% as a benchmark, plus the 6.8% fixed rate, you've got to beat 9.8% annual returns to make it worth keeping the money and investing it - tough to do since most savings accounts return about 4.5% and CDs around the same Podsafe Music + Brian Setzer Orchestra, One More Night Reminders + Add the show to your iTunes by visiting http://www.FinancialAidPodcast.com/itunes/ + Register for PodCamp Boston for free + Private student loans available at any time - visit AlternativeStudentLoan.com + Stafford federal student loans at StaffordLoan.com + Student loan consolidation at StudentLoanConsolidator.com + FAFSA form tutorials and free help at FAFSAonline.com + Financial Aid Podcast Show Notes at FinancialAidPodcast.com . + The Financial Aid Podcast is a publication of the Student Loan Network .

FAP496: Free Stuff Friday on personal finance , Cuomo sues EFP, BRTC followup, Andy McKee
FAP496: Free Stuff Friday on personal finance , Cuomo sues EFP, BRTC followup, Andy McKee Student Financial Aid News + How did BRTC go? Not #1, but in top 10 in a few places around the world. + After all is said and done, probably 10,000 purchases or so + Scholarship yield $4,500 - about a year of community college or in state tuition for a public 4 year college + May be up to a month before we get full purchase data details + There is money on the table - make sure you're signed up with Scholarship Points ! + From Inside Higher Ed: New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo revved up his campaign Thursday against what he just last week termed the "unholy alliance" between colleges and lenders. Not only did he announce an intent to file suit against the California-based Education Finance Partners (EFP) over the private loan company's alleged "deceptive practices," but he also named the names of 12 colleges allegedly accepting EFP's "kickbacks": Baylor, Boston, Clemson, Drexel, Duquesne, Fordham, Long Island, Pepperdine, St. John's and Texas Christian Universities, plus Washington University in St. Louis and the University of Mississippi. + In a nutshell, Cuomo charges that the private lender paid institutions in exchange for preferential treatment and a spot on their lists of "preferred lenders." (Preferred lender lists, provided to students and compiled by a university, are a powerful tool in shaping which companies students choose for a loan: Cuomo estimates that 90 percent of students choose lenders from these lists.) + Furthermore, the "revenue-sharing agreements," also referred to by Cuomo as "kickbacks," were often based on a tiered system, Cuomo said – meaning the more loans referred to the company by the college, the higher the percentage return on the value of the loan for the institution. Neither the colleges nor EFP adequately disclosed the financial terms of their agreements to students, Cuomo said. + Dallas Martin, president of NASFAA, refuted the use of the term kickback, as nothing was done under the table and no one personally profited + That system does provide, even if inadvertently, an economic incentive + IHE: The Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency on Thursday adopted strict rules on reimbursing employees and family members for travel-related costs, following much public criticism of past spending that has come to light, The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported. Among past spending that would now be barred: funds for facials, fly-fishing, $25 cigars and pedicures. + The University of Pennsylvania on Thursday announced that it was raising from $50,000 to $60,000 the family income level at which it would replace loans with grants for needy students. When Penn set the $50,000 level last year, it prompted Harvard University — then offering a similar program for families with incomes of up to $40,000 — to raise its income level to $60,000. + From Bloomberg : The subprime credit crunch is beginning to ensnare even borrowers with better credit. Lenders are increasingly refusing to lend to homebuyers who can't make a down payment of more than 5 percent, especially if they won't document their income. Until recently such borrowers qualified for so-called Alt A mortgages, which rank between prime and subprime in terms of risk. Last year the category accounted for about 20 percent of the $3 trillion of U.S. mortgages, about the same as subprime loans, according to Credit Suisse Group. ``It's going to be very difficult, if not impossible, to do a no-money-down loan at any credit score,'' said Alex Gemici, president of Parsippany, New Jersey-based mortgage bank Montgomery Mortgage Capital Corp. Companies that buy the loans ``are all saying if they haven't eliminated them yet, they'll eliminate them shortly.'' Scholarship Update + Cardinal Joseph E.
