Student Loan Repayment and Loan Counseling

Student Loan Debt Relief

Are you struggling to pay off your student loans?

Debt relief companies will say they can help reduce your monthly payment or get your loans forgiven. But after you pay, you might be worse off. You don’t get the promised help — or your money back. If you stopped paying your loans, your credit could be damaged, too, and your loan balances could balloon. You don’t have to pay for help with your student loans. A company can’t do anything you can’t do for yourself.
