Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia
Do you know of any student loan dismissal schemes?
1 Answer from Attorneys
You use the right word 0 - "schemes." Most are scams. There are legit programs to forgive student loans - like for example, by doing public service, teaching in a disadvantaged or rural area. See e.g. https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/repay-loans/forgiveness-cancellation/public-service
You have to do your own research. There are a few other options, like bankruptcy, but it is only available in certtain circumstances. Do you have public or private loans? Public loans may be more flexible in coming up with a payment you can afford. Also, you might be able to consolidate to a lower interest rate. I would check out what is available at the US Department of Education if you have public loans.
