Less Loan Stress. More Focus on What Matters Most.

Let's get you on track for your Public Student Loan Forgiveness.

Before the school year gets into full swing, take control of your student loans. Just as no two students are alike, no two repayment strategies should be either. From August 24th through September 20th, all school district and college employees receive $100 off our Individualized Student Loan Assessment. Let's find your best path to debt relief.

New Beginnings was born right in the staff lounge when founder Carey Donaldson saw firsthand how student debt weighs on teachers and school staff. With over $92 million in forgiveness secured for our clients in the last decade, we have the results and experience to get you on track with your Public Student Loan Forgiveness (PSLF).

Recent Client Case Study

Case Study 1: Kelly: A Public School Employee in Washington State

The Challenge: A Public Schools employee with $99,089.21 in student loan debt found her path to Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) derailed when the federal SAVE plan was put in administrative forbearance. Initial calculators forced her into an outrageous Income-Driven Repayment (IBR) payment of $937.00 per month—a sum her family simply could not afford.

The Strategy: We pivoted her out of the SAVE plan. By accurately reflecting her household's dual-student-debt load, and successfully petitioning to have her discretionary income recalculated her payment was lowered without sacrificing her PSLF timeline.

Immediate Monthly Savings: Her projected IBR monthly payment decreased from $937.00 down to $107.00!

The Ultimate Outcome: We confirmed her 92 existing qualifying payments, leaving her just 28 payments away from PLSF. Her estimated forgiveness is $96,093.21.
