Student loan repayment is more confusing than ever. Many borrowers—including those in the SAVE forbearance, which is ending soon—are unsure what next steps to take. Questions about repayment plans, possible forgiveness options, and how to afford monthly payments are creating real stress. On top of that, additional changes are on the horizon following the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill this past summer. This is especially important for those with Parent PLUS Loans and families planning to borrow after July 1, 2026.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to turn, this session is for you. Join FAME and nationally recognized student loan expert Betsy Mayotte for a free, informative session covering your federal student loan options and practical strategies to help you move forward with confidence.
