HIP HOP STAR & FORMER MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHER DEE-1 - EDUCATES STUDENTS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF GOING TO COLLEGE


SIXTH ANNUAL STUDY SHOWS HOW PAYING FOR COLLEGE HAS CHANGED SINCE THE RECESSION

NEW Study from Sallie Mae & Ipsos Shows How Families Are Paying for College in the New Economy

When educator turned hip-hop artist Dee-1 finished paying off his student loans, he celebrated by writing the hit song, “Sallie Mae Back.” Now, the lyrical master of financial literacy is teaming up with Sallie Mae to help students get on the right track to paying back their student loans. And with recent graduates making their first student loan payment this month, December is the ideal time to officially release the “Pay Off Your Student Loans Playlist,” a set of tips, tools, and resources from Dee-1 and Sallie Mae.  On December 19, the popular rapper is available to discuss the video and what paying off his college loans inspired the video.

You’ll also learn why the Dee-1 and Sallie Mae collaboration on paying back student loans comes on the heels of the recently completed “Dee-1’s Knowledge for College” tour, presented by Sallie Mae, during which Dee-1 and Sallie Mae visited 18 high schools in five states and awarded a total of $95,000 in scholarships.  It’s a unique and informative public service interview.  We hope you’ll book a window!

DEE 1’S WILL SHARE HIS ‘PLAYLIST’ FOR PAYING BACK STUDENT LOANS: 

  • PERCENTAGES–What portion of the college bill is funded by scholarships, grants, savings and loans
  • COSTS OF COLLEGE–How the cost of education has changed since the recession and how families have changed their decision making 
  • PRACTICAL TIPS—How families can afford to pay tuition without breaking the bank
