Get Help Now
NYSUT has partnered with Cambridge Credit Counseling to offer members like you the opportunity to improve your financial life.  Most financial services companies are in business to make profits for themselves, often at your expense.  But, our union has your back with solutions that may help you reduce or eliminate student loan debt.
NYSUT chose Cambridge Credit Counseling because they are a non-profit debt relief agency with a mission to help you get out of debt fast while giving you the tools and support you need to stay debt free forever.
Student Loan Debt Workshops
We know how stressful and complicated it can be to navigate your student loans.  It's difficult to get straight answers.  That's why we've created a series of statewide, in-person workshops for NYSUT members.  Get the straight answers you deserve.  Workshops are led by Cambridge Credit Counseling and offer NYSUT members the following:

• Personal advice from a student loan counselor to help you better understand the various student loan repayment options, with a focus on Teacher Loan Cancellation and Public Service Loan Forgiveness programs.
• Opportunity to schedule a free counseling session with a certified student loan counselor.
• Access to a student loan portal that will quickly identify all of your options and provide a detailed action plan that you can then discuss with a certified student loan counselor.
• Q & A session following the presentation to address your specific questions.

NYSUT members get a discounted rate on the Cambridge Student Debt Solutions portal, which will help you create a detailed action plan for all of your options and provides step-by-step instructions to help you put solutions into place.
For your convenience, we have scheduled several workshops in the region.  Please go to the link below and register for the session that fits your schedule.
