TG offers free telephone conference on understanding, using cohort default rate information

Round Rock, Texas — Draft cohort default rates have been released for FY 2003. What now? Maybe your rate is up and you need strategies to bring it back down. Or perhaps your institution's rate is at an all-time low, and you want it to stay there.

To assist student financial aid professionals in understanding and using cohort default rate information to benefit their institutions and their student loan borrowers, TG will host a free telephone conference entitled "Understanding Cohort Default Rates" on Thurs., Feb. 24, from 2-3 p.m. (CDT). Conference presenter Joe Braxton will provide an overview of cohort default rates, points of consideration, and additional resources to help you develop or make the most of your student loan default prevention and debt management programs.

A brief question-and-answer session will follow the presentation. Questions may be submitted in advance of the event to sheila.casey@tgslc.org. The telephone conference is free of charge and open to participants from any institution. To register and obtain further details, contact Premiere Teleconferencing at (800) 289-0579 and reference confirmation number 3894050.

More information about the presenters and/or about the event can be found at www.tgslc.org.
