PayForED has Virtual Financial Aid and Student Loan Repayment enhancements in our current student loan solution platform.  We developed these features to help our clients manage the current college and student loan landscape.

The entire college funding, financial aid, and student loan repayment process is undergoing significant changes due to the Big Beautiful Bill. For the High School Class of 2026, the new loan limits will go into effect.  College Affordability will become critical in your college decision.  Other enhancements are only available to our PayForED software users and business partners.

Here is a list of the features PayForED has available:

• Enhanced Financial Aid Night Programs
• College Cost Data Update 2025/2026
• Consumer Video Library
• Three Software tools

PayForED’s Enhanced Financial Aid Night Programs

PayForED has developed a series of programs designed to enhance most college financial aid night programs.  These programs will be live and are offered free of charge. These Financial Aid Night programs are recorded and embedded within our software for easy access for our software users.

In addition to the traditional Financial Aid or Paying for College night, PayForED will also host other essential information nights: Understanding Student Loans, Paying for Graduate School, Saving for College, and Understanding the Award Letter.  The goals of these programs are to provide more detailed and digestible information for families.  We space these out throughout the year so the information is easier to understand.  We do not sell any financial products.

Here is the link to register for the events.  There is also a downloadable flyer to help you keep track of these events.

PayForED has Updated College Cost Data

Our 2025-26 college cost data is now available.  Having current college costs is a significant advantage for families because many college data sources do not have their data updated until much later.   It is essential to check the data you may be using to plan for college.

The PayForED team takes great pride in our proprietary database and the timing of this release.  With our cost data updated in August, families can evaluate the actual four-year cost of college before they apply.  With our enrollment management matrix and four-year cash flow, our College Cost Analyzer generates the customized numbers of each college’s net cost and debt before application.  Having these projections eliminates a great deal of stress for both the student and parents.

Consumer Video Library

With the increased cost and complexity of college, PayForED has seen a growing demand for more information.  Each of our three software solutions feature a unique help and coaching video library tailored to that specific user’s situation.  We have added a comprehensive video library to help users understand their current situation and then provide additional information on the next steps.  We have recognized that college funding is a series of decisions and not just a single commitment.

For example, a family going through the college decision process with their child may want more information on student loan repayment, especially with the current changes to Parent PLUS and Graduate Loans. Long-term planning may be needed. With PayForED, families can gain an introduction to the student loan repayment process while also determining how they will finance their college education.  Getting this information early could improve your debt structure decisions.  These videos help us achieve our goal of providing a comprehensive answer at each stage of the college financial decision process.

PayForED is committed to providing an innovative and easy-to-use environment that can help families pay for college and repay their student loans.  We understand the importance of this investment to you and your children’s financial future.
