PLOW- Post-secondary Loan Obligation Write-down |
$20,000 Student Loan Repayment Program
With the rising cost of tuition, it is becoming increasingly difficult to earn a great degree and start out life “on the right foot.” Many new graduates are bogged down with a large amount of student loan debt that takes years, sometimes decades, to repay. In July of 2006 there was a major increase in student loan interest rates. The escalating costs of books, supplies, and room and board contribute to the staggering financial burden many graduates face. Additionally, the time, effort, and stress it takes to find a good job once an individual has earned a degree can be overwhelming.
With the PLOW student loan repayment program, students will have the opportunity to have up to $20,000 of their student loans paid for them.
For more information go to: http://www.ndida.com/ndida/career_center/student_loan_repayment.php

North Dakota Community Action Partnership |
http://www.capnd.org/programsservices/IDA.htm
What is an IDA?
Individual Development Accounts (IDAs) are special savings accounts designed to help families and individuals of modest means to establish a pattern of regular savings, and ultimately, purchase a lasting asset of value that is likely to return substantial long-term benefits to its owner. Such benefits include security, stability, and opportunities for increased income.
The three eligible assets that can be purchased with an IDA are college tuition, a first home, or small business capitalization.
How Does an IDA Work?
Participants are required to save for at least six months, although most save money over the course of two years. At the end of the program every dollar deposited into the IDA by the participant is matched by a combination of federal and nonfederal funds at a rate of 2:1. In North Dakota participants are able to save up to $2,000 for a match of $4,000. This means if the maximum amount is saved, the participant earns $6,000 to use for purchase of an eligible asset.
Throughout the savings period participants are required to make a monthly deposit into their IDA and the contribution must come from earned income. Participants are also required to complete financial literacy training, which is a critical component as it teaches skills such as: creating and following a budget, owning and managing a bank account or credit card, credit counseling and credit repair, and guidance on refundable tax credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit. Additionally, participants are required to attend asset-specific training. This training is focused on the participant’s asset that they intend to purchase upon the completion of their IDA savings.
Who is Eligible for an IDA?
Individuals and households who have earned income and are 200% of the federal poverty level:
2011 Income Guidelines
Family Size Gross Yearly Income
1 $21,780
2 $29,420
3 $37,060
4 $44,700
5 $52,340
6 $59,980
* Add $7,640 for each additional household member. |
