Why Schedule a Loan Consultation?

There are two main reasons to get help from a student loan expert.

If you are overwhelmed by everything and don’t know where to begin, a consultation can help you make sense of your options and feel like your debt is under control.

If you’ve already gotten things figured out and want expert feedback or to ensure you are not missing any opportunities, a call can help.

Isn’t all of this infromation available for free?

Absolutely. Outside of sharing some personal experience, all of the information provided in a consultation session is publicly available.

The benefit of a consultation is that you have someone who can connect the dots for you. The goal is an hour-long phone call to save days or weeks of research and frustration.

Schedule a consultation today and get closer to student loan peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a student loan consultation include legal advice?

No. While I can help you understand student loan rules and strategies, I cannot provide legal advice. Contract rules and debt collection policies can vary from state to state, so I’m cautious not to venture into the realm of legal advice and risk offering inaccurate advice in your state.

What if more questions come up after my consultation?

All sessions include six months of priority email support. If you have a question, just reply to your confirmation email.

Do you help with applications or document preparation?

No. In most cases, the most efficient way to apply is to use an online form at studentaid.gov. I can help you determine a strategy and point you toward the necessary resources, but it will be up to you to fill out the forms.

Can my friends or family join in on the call?

Absolutely. Having your spouse or cosigner on the line is a great way to get everyone on the same page.

Call Logistics

Typically, I’ll call you at the number you provide when you book, but if you’d like, we can do a video call over FaceTime or Google Meets.

When you schedule your appointment, I’ll send an optional form that can be completed beforehand. This little bit of prep before the call can make things more efficient and ensure nothing gets missed.

If you need to reschedule, please reach out as soon as possible so that we can get another date on the books.
