Students Scramble to Find Student Loans as Fall Semester Draws Near

Posted in Massachussets on 25.06.10

It’s crunch time for college students trying to secure the money they need for the fall semester. But with lenders continuing to suspend their student loan programs — the count now stands at 131 federal loan lenders and 30 private loan lenders — students may find themselves challenged to locate lenders that are still offering federal or private student loans.

 

 

 

In an attempt to help lenders be able to continue making new federal student loans, the government included a provision in the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act, signed into law in May, aimed at providing capital for cash-strapped lenders.

 

 

Under this legislation, the Department of Education can buy federal college loans from lenders, thereby providing these lenders with the liquidity they need to continue funding new parent and student loans. The law specifically targets lenders who, in the current credit crunch, are unable to find investors in the secondary market willing to purchase their student loan portfolios.

 

 

 

Even with this legislation in place, however, lenders continue to find themselves forced to suspend their student loan programs. As recently as July 28, the Brazos Higher Education Service Corp., the 26th-largest originator of federal student loans in 2007, and the Massachusetts Educational Financing Authority, the largest student loan issuer to Massachusetts residents, both announced that they would no longer be able to provide either new or current borrowers with student loans.

 

 

 

As the suspensions of both federal and private student loan programs keep spreading through all types of lenders — large and small; for-profit and nonprofit; banks, non-banks, and credit unions; state loan agencies and schools-as-lenders — students and their families are finding themselves with fewer borrowing options to get the parent and student loans they need to pay the fall tuition bills that are coming due over these next few weeks.

 

 

 

Two Major Lenders the Latest Casualties of Student Loan Crisis

 

 

 

The Brazos Group, a primarily nonprofit group of higher education lending, servicing, and other financial aid companies, first announced that it would stop offering federal college loans back n March. In May, however, after the government passed the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act, Brazos once again began offering federal parent and student loans, saying that the government’s short-term liquidity plan had renewed the organization’s confidence in its ability to continue offering student loans.

 

 

 

But Brazos once again suspended its education lending program late last month, citing continued turmoil in the student loan industry.

 

 

 

Brazos Executive Vice President Ellis Tredway said his organization simply “ran out of time to get everything in place” to issue new student loans for the fall.

 

 

 

The Massachusetts Educational Financing Authority, which issued more than $500 million in college loans to 40,000 Massachusetts college students and their families last year, had already suspended its federal student loan program in April. Now, MEFA has also pulled the plug on its non-federal private loan program, which provided Massachusetts students with fixed-rate private student loans.

 

 

 

“While we continue to pursue every possible option, raising the necessary funds to offer fixed–interest rate private education loans is taking longer than originally projected and has become even more challenging,” said Tom Graf, MEFA’s executive director.

 

 

 

Students Face the Uncertainty of Switching Lenders

 

 

With over 8 million students and parents having turned to federal college loans in 2006–07, according to the College Board, the number or families that stand to be affected by the ongoing wave of lender departures this year is not unsubstantial.

 

 

Last week, financial aid officers at Texas A&M University — a school with over 54,000 students — heard from seven different lenders warning that they would no longer be able to offer federal student loans, a situation that has made more than a few borrowers uneasy.

 

 

 

Dyneche Duffield, an incoming college student headed to Houston Baptist University, is uncomfortable with the prospect of having to establish a relationship with a new lender other than her local bank, which used to offer student loans.

“I would have much rather taken out a loan there than somewhere where I didn’t know anyone,” Duffield said.

 

 

 

While students like Duffield may still be able to go directly to the Department of Education for their federal college loans or find those remaining lenders who are still offering private student loans (albeit with more stringent credit criteria that are making it harder for students to qualify), the magnitude of the problem within the student loan credit markets and how deeply it has permeated the college loan industry is alarming to many administrators and officials in higher education.

 

 

 

Kathryn Osmond, executive director of student financial services at Wellesley College in Massachusetts, finds the situation with MEFA to be particularly indicative of a long-lasting and serious problem.

 

 

“An economy that is in such a tailspin that it affects a critical agency like MEFA,” said Osmond, “is an economy that scares me.”

How to Find Free Christian Music Online

Posted in Music on 23.06.10

Contemporary Christian music has the power to educate and inspire. Music, of the Christian variety or any other variety, has the power to inspire emotions, to transport memories in time, and to make us thankful for the blessings in our life. The truth is that there are many biblical lessons that people have learned and remember thanks to the gospel songs that they heard in their youth. Today, young and old alike are still learning and being inspired by Christian music. No matter if you prefer traditional Christian music or upbeat Christian rock, there is an artist out there who will send chills down your spine with their heartfelt lyrics.

The internet has made it possible to download a vast amount of music free of charge. There are literally millions of Christian songs in every language imaginable available online. All you have to do to find your favorite music by your favorite artists is to type a few keywords into a search box and Voila! You may find hundreds of sources for your Christian music in seconds.

The inexpensive marketing power of the internet has also made it possible for thousands of unknown artists to gain exposure. These are artists that do not have the capital and the record deal to thrust them into the limelight. These are instead artists who only have their heart, passion and talent to put into their music. And you can find all of these artists as well as popular artists online.

Unfortunately, though, much of the free music that you find online cannot be downloaded legally. It is subject to copyright, and there are stiff consequences for anyone who is caught illegally downloading and distributing music that belongs to others. If you do find music that you can download legally, it is often riddled with viruses, adware and spyware. Downloading music free of charge also poses ethical concerns for Christians who want to be sure that they only download legal music.

Thankfully, I found a site that takes away all the worries when it comes to downloading free Christian music. It features free “indie” music. This is music that is independent of the control of others, meaning that there are no record labels or producers involved. The site is not a melting pot where anyone, regardless of talent or motivation, can post their music. There are selective guidelines in place that ensure that the free music featured on the site is of the highest quality and absolutely legal.

While some of the artists are not well known, they have made it their life’s mission to produce music that inspires Christians. They may not have the backing of a record label, but they have talent and faith that can move mountains. The site can be accessed by logging onto ChristianMPFree.com.

I live in Boston and I need to find good durable boots?

Posted in Boston on 13.05.10

I live in Boston, MA and I do a lot of walking. Since I moved here, I’ve gone through three pairs of boots because I walk around a lot. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of where I could find some durable, black boots that still look cute and aren’t like combat boots. And yes, they must be boots because I love boots and wear them like every day. Thanks!

Find An Affordable Provider For Massachusetts Health Insurance

Posted in Massachussets on 04.05.10

Investing in Massachusetts health insurance, if you are well off, healthy and young, may seem like a luxury, although the reality is far from it. Consider twisting an ankle on a hike, or a broken arm in a soccer match, or bronchial problems becoming pneumonia. There are thousands of dollars that may be required for treatment. Given below is a list of conditions that describes those who require insurance. Check them out as you might just fall into any of these categories:

Are you moving from High School to Work? Your parents may have employer coverage, and if this is the case, you should try and be a part of their Massachusetts health insurance plan. This is actually less expensive than getting individual medical insurance as employers usually bear a considerable part of their employees’ insurance premiums, if it is a group plan. A large number of states require the insurers to expand parental insurance to their adult kids below 25 or 30 years.

Are you entering college? Private and public colleges in Massachusetts offer Massachusetts insurance plans for students who are not enrolled in their parents’ insurance coverage. In this case, the amount of premiums that you are required to pay amount to $850 for a single year. This is about 80% cheaper than the premiums that are paid by group sponsored employee health insurance plans. However, you may not be eligible as a part time student.

Has your parent just been downsized? If the company that has laid-off your parent is still in business, you get to enjoy the COBRA benefits. This federal legislation allows you to enjoy the advantages of the health insurance plan in Massachusetts for up to 18 months after being laid off. For certain students, the plan may sound expensive, but under the Obama government, measures have been taken to stimulate the package with a 65% knock down on the premium.

Are you without job? If you are jobless, your parents can carry on to include you in their health insurance Massachusetts policy. As a graduate, you may be offered a plan by an alumni member for covering you for a period of 6 months or even longer. Fresh graduates are eligible for discounts. However, if you have reached the age of 25 years, you may not be eligible to qualify for being covered under your parents’ health plan. Short term insurance plans come dear and offer limited coverage.

Are you a self employed entrepreneur? A lot of insurance agents in Massachusetts target young adults with insurance policies that may cost somewhere between $40 and $70, like Tonik plans from WellPoint or BodyGuard from Aetna. The representative of the Massachusetts insurance department can tell you about the availability of the plans. Remember, if the premiums are low, the coverage is limited and you may require paying more out of your pocket. Instead of incurring the initial thousand dollars of your health policy, it is best to locate a plan with the lowest co pay, even if that means a higher premium
