There have been a lot of changes in repayment since the last time student borrowers had to think about it - it's been three years of changes and waiting! With staffing shortages, regulatory issues and training, it is difficult to keep up, especially when servicer incentive changes have occurred and borrowers will be joining repayment simultaneously. As a result, the lines for assistance - whether physically or virtually - may be longer than ever.

Join us for this educational session to hear:

  • The state of repayment today
  • Repayment options
  • Resources for you and your students
  • Helpful Inceptia solutions

With student loan repayment on the horizon, borrowers and schools will be dealing with a much different landscape of repayment than past trends could predict. The CARES Act has afforded some relief to all student loan borrowers by bringing them current and pausing payments.

Understanding the ramifications of mass student loan repayment resumption on borrowers is critical to helping them proactively prepare for, and successfully navigate, these unprecedented impacts. In this session, we will talk about the challenges this presents from the student and school perspective, along with recommendations to ease the strain.

The 2008 book “Nudge” reinvented the way we view behavioral finance, with Spock and Homer Simpson as our perfect case studies. Now, we’re back to take another look at the science of human behavior and how we can help students make optimal decisions and take actions, in a time of doing more with less.

Based on the updated “Nudge: The Final Edition,” this session provides insight into creating effective messages that inspire students to take action. We’ll review nudge theory basics, including ethics and implications, while incorporating new findings from the authors’ works. And, of course, we’ll discuss how nudges can work with your students. Don’t miss out on this fun and informative session!

As financial educators, we know the link between emotions and money, and often have to play the role of unofficial therapist; hey, there’s a reason behavioral therapy is a thing! As such, we may use positive tactics to encourage and motivate those we serve. But what if this approach is doing more harm than good?

What if we could deepen our conversations by embracing the suck, while also helping others better understand how to achieve and maintain happiness as part of holistic financial wellness?

Inceptia continues our behavioral science dive with a new look at how to be happy – but also, why being happy is not always the right response in building financial health.

In this session, we’ll talk through the benefits of feeling ALL the feels and how to find peace and
balance through:

  • Applying behavioral science theory to maximize happiness
  • Learning to identify toxic positivity – and just say no!

To say that student loan repayment has seen a lot of changes this year is an understatement! It’s a lot to digest for fin aid pros, let alone graduating students or those who are preparing to finally enter repayment after a nearly three-year hiatus. Inceptia can help by providing expert guidance and plain language info to decode student loan repayment.

In this student-centered session, we will cover what you absolutely need to know about repayment, including:

  • Newly announced (Nov. 22) extension to the repayment pause
  • Changes to loan repayment plans and forgiveness options
  • How to save time and money throughout the life of loan repayment
  • How to choose a repayment plan that fits individual lifestyles and income
  • Options to avoid default and delinquency

This free webinar is a great way for students (and staff!) to hear exit counseling concepts and have questions answered by an expert. We encourage you to extend this invitation to anyone who may benefit from this valuable session.
