How is the PSLF waiver going?
b'
Join me in this episode as we delve into the PSLF waiver report card. While I\'m thrilled to see a growing number of individuals in our community receive forgiveness through the PSLF waiver, the low 20% success rate highlights the confusion borrowers face in determining where to apply and which loans to consolidate.
I\'ll then draw a comparison between the PSLF waiver and the student loan forgiveness initiative, which boasted a much higher 60% take-up rate and a simplified application process.\\xa0
