Loan Repayment, the sequel
Posted By Shelley Jiang, Apr 16, 2014
Following up after the LRAP proposed revisions, there has been another information session for public interest folks regarding federal programs supporting loan repayment. If you were not able to attend on 4/15/15, then the recording can be found on the Intranet:
Technology & Media > Mediasite Videos > Career Services > Title: LRAP/Loan Repayment > Air Date: 4/15/2014
Also, on topic of the LRAP proposed revisions:
- Do NOT affect alumni who graduated 2013 and earlier.
- Once enacted, the revised LRAP could affect graduates 2014 and later.
- There is consideration of a transitional period in which classes of '14, '15, '16 may opt into the old LRAP terms or the new ones.
- Prospective students are being told about the LRAP terms up for revision so that they have notice in making matriculation decisions.
- Uncertain when the proposed changes to LRAP would progress even to the next stage - namely, discussion and vote by LRAP Committee.
- Dean Kulwin continues to strategize with her subcommmittee in tweaking the proposal based on townhall and email feedback.
- The proposal will be presented to the LRAP Committee if/once there are some resolutions to the troubling issues.
