About this Webinar
As the cost of higher education continues to spiral upwards, many young learners who are just beginning their professional journey are questioning whether earning their qualifications at traditional universities is what’s best for their long-term interests. It’s hard to argue with their apprehensions. Currently, the student loan debt in the US alone stands at an eye-watering 1.6 trillion dollars.
In light of these stark circumstances, Income Sharing Agreements (ISAs) have emerged as a viable alternative to taking out a sizable loan to pay for a career-defining education. Put simply, and ISA is a contract between a student and an educational institution wherein the institution provides the student with a learning experience that prepares him/her for his/her career, and in return, the student pays off the service fees after getting a job via a portion of his/her monthly income for a predetermined duration of time. The ISA phenomenon is becoming increasingly popular among young aspirants, but this arrangement is still an alien concept to most.
So what exactly does an ISA entail, and is it really a more feasible option than a student loan? How does an ISA affect a young adult’s financial future? What type of educational entities provide ISA alternatives?
Join us for this in-depth webinar as we assess the emergence of ISA fee payment models and how this trend is transforming the higher education landscape, as well as the pros and cons it presents for budding professionals.
