Tuition is rising, subsidized financial aid is falling and navigating the costs of higher education is becoming increasingly complex. As students struggle to fully grasp their financial obligations, it’s important for campuses to understand how they can help students meet these obligations.

Is your campus equipped to help student payers become more financially literate and prepared for the costs involved in achieving a higher education?

Join this webinar featuring SUNY Potsdam and Blackboard Payments Powered by Cashnet as they review the results of a recent survey that comprehensively reviews how student payers are contributing to their futures and the challenges they face.

Learning objectives:

• Identify challenges that students and families have today with the rising cost of tuition
• Identify areas to improve retention through deferred tuition payment plans
• Create enhanced payment plans for your students and parents
