Learn About Our Individualized Student Loan Assessment (ISLA)


Most resources for student loan borrowers come in the form of an online toolkit provided by a non-profit or government organization. Almost all resources require the borrower to navigate our complicated student loan system alone. That's why we developed our Individualized Student Loan Assessment (ISLA) a decade ago. This tool helps us see your full financial and life picture; balancing your monetary goals alongside life pursuits and milestones. By walking our clients through this process, we can create a student loan repayment and/or forgiveness plan that is unique to you. No student loan borrower is the same and your repayment shouldn’t be either.
Our ISLA process is unique to NewBeginnings Student Loan Advocacy - you won't find this strategy or our personalized attention anywhere else. This invaluable resource provides a comparison between your current repayment plan and a repayment plan that is created just for you. And, guides to support you until your student loans reach zero.
For a decade, our clients took this first critical step towards financial freedom and saved a lot of stress and an average of $45-50k in loan forgiveness. We can't wait to start the process with you.
Our Individualized Student Loan Assessment (ISLA) process and timeline are straightforward and hopeful. Our costs are transparent - the ISLA with an outlined plan forward costs $429 to complete - and your initial strategic call is always free.

This call is the most important step borrowers take for their financial freedom and it's absolutely free. During this call, we listen to your worries, concerns, and frustrations, establishing trust. You do not have to prepare anything ahead of this call. The Initial Strategic Call sets the stage as a framework for the ISLA creation. This call is completely free and you do not have to move forward with the ISLA process.

Part One details your current student loan repayment plan, in PDF form. We discuss what staying your current repayment plan will look like, taking no action. These are your student loan specifics including loan types, interest rates, monthly payment, repayment plan, repayment term and total amount to be paid. Before Part One, you can pay the full ISLA amount ($429) or pay a half deposit amount.

Part Two follows the receipt of Part One. This PDF deliverable details the opportunities and strategies that are tailored to you and your goals. These include options for a lower monthly payment, decreased loan term, estimated loan forgiveness, and current initiatives. This hope is based on a decade of student loan advocacy, expertise & client success.

This is our favorite part; the opportunity to review everything with you. This is done via phone, Zoom, or in-person. We will compare and contrast both your current student loan repayment plan (Part One) and the opportunities and strategies (Part Two) that are designed just for you. It is at this time that your individualized strategic plan of attack and relief begins.
We know what it looks like to avoid your student loans. But, one of the longest paths toward repayment is the path where borrowers feel stuck. There are other options available to you. You do not have to face this process alone. Reach out to NewBeginnings to begin the conversation. Your life can be vibrant while reaching your financial goals and milestones.
