Tip of the Week

If your May and June grads have problems making payments, they may need to consider deferment. TG offers a complete description of deferment, including a listing of eligibility criteria online at www.tgslc.org/borrowers/deferment/index.cfm.

This, That, and the Other...

According to a recent survey conducted by The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), college graduates in 2008-09 are likely to have fewer job opportunities available to them. Considering the economic times that we are facing, NACE indicates that it is important for students to exhaust all career resources and services offered by their college campus as they seek employment.

Expand your students' career development tools with the wide array of resources available through TG's Adventures In Education (AIE™). AIE is a free public service that provides a wealth of information to students on college and career services. You'll find it at www.aie.org/College/Careers/index.cfm.
