Phone and text scams are currently underway targeting Erie residents and possibly other Pennsylvania residents offering “Pennsylvania Loan Forgiveness”. If you are contacted from someone stating:
“We are reaching out to you because your student loan has been flagged for the Pennsylvania forgiveness program. You are eligible to receive full forgiveness. This applies to all Pennsylvania residents. Please call our office back at (717) 573-8721 to be connected to your loan counselor. Again, that number is (717) 573-8721. Thank you.”
This is a scam! You should contact your loan servicer directly for any questions about legitimate loan forgiveness programs. Additionally, if you have been contacted about a loan forgiveness scam, a complaint may be filed with the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General.
We continue to send student account activation emails for PHEAA's PA State Grant System to students who have completed their 2024-25 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA ® ). After activating your account, first-time applicants should complete the PA State Grant application items presented on your Action Items list as soon as possible. Renewal applicants do not need to take any action at this time.
PA State Grant awards for the 2024-25 academic year will be displayed to students and schools by mid-September. Disbursement of funds to postsecondary schools will occur in October and may take additional time to reach your school account.
