Icon for Student Loan Basics Workshop

The Lewiston Public Library will host Pine Tree Legal on Thursday, November 30, 2023, for their presentation called “Student Loan Basics and Repayment”. This free, public program will start at 5:30 p.m. in the Jeanne Couture Room located on the first floor of the Lewiston Public Library.

Struggling with student loan repayment? Confused about what types of loans you have? Wondering if the new SAVE repayment plan makes sense for you? Questions about Public Service Loan Forgiveness, Income-Driven Repayment, or Total and Permanent Disability Discharge? This student loan presentation will cover the basics of student loans, repayment options, opportunities for forgiveness or cancellation based on disability, profession, or school misconduct, and the rights you have as a student loan borrower.

Pine Tree Legal Assistance is committed to making the justice system more accessible for all Mainers, regardless of income, using three effective strategies: legal advocacy, information about your rights, and community legal education. Pine Tree Legal wants to empower all Mainers to advocate for themselves by providing them with information about their civil legal rights and responsibilities.

The Lewiston Public Library is located downtown at 200 Lisbon Street, on the corner of Pine Street and Lisbon Street. For more information on Thursday’s program please visit the library website at lplonline.org or by contacting the reference desk at 513-3135 or LPLReference@lewistonmaine.gov.
