How President Biden’s SAVE student loan repayment plan can lower your bill
Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 23:12:36 GMT
By Katie Lobosco | CNNWashington — While the Supreme Court struck down President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness program in late June, a separate and significant change to the federal student loan system is moving ahead.Eligible borrowers can now enroll in a new income-driven repayment plan that could lower their monthly bills and reduce the amount they pay back over the lifetime of their loans.If borrowers apply this summer, the changes to their bills are expected take effect before payments resume in October after the yearslong pandemic pause ends. But the Biden administration is encouraging borrowers to apply as soon as possible to make sure the changes happen on time.Once the plan, which Biden is calling SAVE (Saving on a Valuable Education), is fully phased in next year, some people will see their monthly bills cut in half and remaining debt canceled after making at least 10 years of payments.Unlike Biden’s blocked one-time forgiveness program, the new repayment plan will ...Missing Sierra Nevada hiker found dead; wife saw his tracking dot stop moving

A California man who went missing on a Sierra Nevada backpacking trip was found dead, apparently having fallen on a rocky slope.Stephen Bloor, 57, of Santa Ana, was reported missing by his wife, who became concerned when his GPS tracking device remained in one place for hours, the Mono County sheriff’s office said.Bloor had set out on the morning of Friday, Aug. 18, from Devils Postpile, near Mammoth Lakes, on what was intended to be a solo hike to the Lake Tahoe area, about 180 miles. He reportedly told other hikers on the John Muir Trail that he planned to spend the first night at Garnet Lake, a 10-mile hike from Devils Postpile — but in his last contact with his wife, around 6 p.m., he had apparently left the main trail and was near Iceberg Lake, at 10,000 feet elevation and 3 miles southwest of Garnet.

Clemson has been in control of the Atlantic Coast Conference for nearly a decade. Florida State aims to challenge that this fall.The ninth-ranked Tigers are the preseason favorite after winning the ACC title for the seventh time in eight seasons. The Seminoles, however, are ranked higher in the AP Top 25 (eighth) and picked second to set up the potential for a Clemson-FSU meeting in the title game now that the league has nixed its two-division format. That puts the spotlight squarely on the league’s marquee brands, though for FSU, it remains to be seen whether this climb will have staying power.“We know that Clemson has been the standard in the recent past in the ACC and we’re pushing to get to that point,” coach Mike Norvell said.Florida State terrorized the league when it arrived in 1992, winning national championships in 1993 and 1999 under the late Bobby Bowden, and then — after a lull from 2005-09 — again in 2013 with Jimbo Fisher.By 2015, Clemson had blown past Flo...Hungry Ohio Bobcats hope to end MAC title drought by dethroning favored Toledo

Last season, Ohio quarterback Kurtis Rourke had the Bobcats on the cusp of winning their first Mid-American Conference crown since 1968. Then he tore a knee ligament and Ohio lost its fifth league championship game.Nine months later, the MAC’s reigning offensive player of the year is nearing the end of his rehab schedule and about to start a new quest.“I’m just looking forward to playing again, to playing the game I love,” Rourke said. “I’ve been working a lot this summer on getting back mentally and also physically. So as soon as I can get going is the best-case scenario.”It’s unclear when exactly that might be. Third-year coach Tim Albin has repeatedly said Rourke’s recovery is ahead of schedule. Rourke concurs. Could he play in Saturday’s season opener at San Diego State? “We’re going to have a clearer understanding of where he’s at after practice,” Albin said Monday. The backup plan is to lean on the same duo that helped Ohio clinch last year’s East...Judge temporarily blocks new Tennessee House Republican ban on signs

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A Tennessee judge agreed Wednesday to temporarily block a new rule advanced by state House Republicans that banned the public from holding signs during floor and committee proceedings after three people with signs urging gun control were kicked out of a hearing Tuesday. Nashville Chancellor Anne Martin handed down the ruling within hours of the filing of a lawsuit by the American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee on behalf of Allison Polidor, Maryam Abolfazli and Erica Bowton. Republicans, who have a supermajority control in the House, advanced the new rule this week during a special session that was called by Gov. Bill Lee in reaction to a Nashville school shooting in March.A hearing on the temporary injunction has been scheduled for Sept. 5. However, lawmakers are expected to adjourn by Thursday.THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below.NASHVILLE, Tenn.
