Ameritech Financial: Dealing With Student Debt Later in Life Can Be Doable for Proactive Borrowers

While older Americans are experiencing the weight of student loans even more, taking on student loans later in life may not necessarily be a bad thing. For one veterinarian, taking on debt in her 50s was a necessary step to fulfill her dreams. Folks who take on student loans later in their lives in order to pursue a passion should know that federal student loans come with opportunities for borrowers to repay in a variety of ways. Ameritech Financial, a document preparation company which helps clients apply for and maintain enrollment in repayment programs, encourages a proactive approach to repaying student loans.

“Those who decided to pursue a new degree later in life, to change fields or go in a totally different direction seem to be individuals who are interested in taking more control of their lives,” said Tom Knickerbocker, executive vice president of Ameritech Financial. “We also encourage staying in control of your student loan repayment.”

While pursuing a new degree or taking on new debt at any stage of life should be done with careful thought and planning, there is value for many in changing direction or pursuing new interests. The crucial part is making sure that if debt is incurred, borrowers can effectively manage it when it comes time for repayment. Federal student loan borrowers of several different types of loans are eligible to apply for income-driven repayment plans, which base monthly payments on income and family size. The plans are often more affordable for borrowers who enroll.

Ameritech Financial helps student loan borrowers in applying for these programs and maintaining enrollment if they wish to remain in their program each year. Ameritech Financial provides each client with a loan analysis and document preparation support. Ameritech Financial is a private, independent company with no affiliation with any government agency or loan servicer.

Ameritech Financial focuses on borrower success and acts as a guide and assistant in applying for the programs.

“Borrowers who take on debt later in life are often on atypical trajectories and we are sensitive to that,” said Knickerbocker. “We treat each client with the unique attention they deserve.”
