student loans

Oklahoma high school seniors can now start filling out their Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, forms. And, because of a new state law that applies to the Class of 2025, they are required to complete the form or formally opt out to graduate.

Nearly 4 million Texans will have to make student loan payments again as a three-year COVID-era pause on payments and interest accrual comes to an end next. A financial aid administrator from UT Arlington breaks down what that means for borrowers.

A U.S. Department of Education review identified 804,000 borrowers across the country with loans taken more than two decades ago and whose debts should have been canceled but were not because of “administrative failures.”

The cancellation of up to $20,000 of debt would have benefited millions of Texans.

The lawsuit filed by the Republican attorneys general of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and South Carolina argues Congress never approved massive student loan cancellation. It asserts that the Biden administration and the U.S. Education Department aim to misuse emergency authority.
