Student Aid Requests Soar - Families Feel Pinch in Tight Economy
Littleton, CO – August 27, 2008 – Facing a sputtering economy, escalating tuition costs and a rise in college admission applications; would be college students are applying for financial aid in surging numbers. Nationally, 8.9 million students filed federal student aid forms during the first half of 2008, a 16.3 percent increase over the same period last year.
For decades, the federal student loan program has helped tens of millions of students pay for college. About 47 percent of families borrow money to help get kids through college, according to a study released August 20th by lender Sallie Mae and Gallup. The study affirmed that federal loans are easily the most popular source of borrowing.
“The student loan industry has experienced a volatile year and the impact of this volatility is starting to trickle down to parents and students. Tighter lending standards and falling housing prices have made it harder for parents to tap home-equity loans and lines of credit to pay their kids' education bills,” said David Kenney, CEO of CollegeZapps. It is critical for parents and students to have options. If you don’t apply – you can’t be accepted. If you are not accepted to multiple colleges - you don’t have choices.”
“Each college has a different cost of attendance based on factors such as tuition, fees, room, board, projected expenses and regional costs of living. Parents and students want to weigh their best options of grants, scholarships, loans, and work study,” continued Kenney.
In an interview titled “The Credit Crisis and Student Loans” on the PBS Nightly Business Report, Brian Lee Sang, Financial Aid Director at American University said, “It's creating issues where families are coming to us asking us for institutional help, saying, hey can I get more money any way to try to help get us through the spring semester. But I think more colleges are going to see even more of this and feel the impact of this next year.”
Families are looking for more options.
