The Department of Education (ED) is rescheduling its webinar focused on how to reduce the annual loan limits for less-than-full-time enrollment using the Schedule of Reductions (SOR) to an undetermined date in September. The webinar was originally scheduled for Wednesday, August 26. ED wrote in a blue note to a previously-issued announcement that it will inform the financial aid community about the new date when the information becomes available.

In an upcoming webinar hosted by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), NASFAA President and CEO Melanie Storey will discuss how students and institutions are navigating the changing landscape of the student loan marketplace following the implementation of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). This webinar begins at 1 p.m. on September 1 with multiple panels held throughout the day, learn more and reserve your seat today!
