How We Help if You Have Student Loans

Whether your loans are federal (Direct, PLUS, consolidation) or private loans through a bank or lender, they all have to fit within one monthly budget. In a free one-on-one session, a counselor can:

- Review your full budget and debt picture to see how much room you realistically have for student loan payments.
- Explore if a Debt Management Plan for credit cards and other unsecured debt
could lower interest rates and payments so you have more cash available for your student loans.
- Review your credit report and score and coach you on actions that may strengthen your credit profile over time. This can be especially helpful if you’re thinking about refinancing student loans or applying for a debt consolidation loan in the future.
- Connect you with trusted educational resources
(including StudentAid.gov and our own FIT Academy courses) so you can better understand your student loan options.

What Our Counselors Do and Don’t Do

We do:
- Provide budget, credit, and debt counseling that takes your student loans into account.
- Help you evaluate whether a Debt Management Plan for credit card and other unsecured debt could free up money for your student loan payments.
- Offer education and tools, including calculators, worksheets, and links to official student loan resources.

We do not currently:
- Provide stand-alone student loan counseling sessions or act as your representative with the Department of Education or private lenders.
- Enroll you in specific federal repayment or forgiveness programs or change your loan terms.
- Refinance, consolidate, or service student loans.
