UAlbany president talks financial opportunities for students - Spectrum News

Image
It's that time of year when college students are headed off to school, many of them for the first time — and in a lot of cases, that education isn't coming cheap. But college doesn't have to break the bank. This week, In Focus takes a look at the options for higher education savings in New York state. University at Albany President Havidán Rodríguez sits down with JoDee Kenney to talk about financial opportunities the state has for students, and how they've made a difference for students at UAlbany. Rodríguez says the financial aid options that are now available to students in New York have had a big impact on SUNY campuses, including UAlbany's. He describes the Excelsior Scholarship as "truly transformational" for students in New York, noting that over 1,200 UAlbany students have been able to benefit from it. Rodríguez says UAlbany recruits a lot of first-generation, low-income and underrepresented minority students, so state aid programs like the Excelsi...

Subsidized vs. unsubsidized student loans: What’s the difference? - Fortune

Image
The cost of college has skyrocketed over the past several decades. In fact, the average annual tuition bill for a four year public college is now 37 times higher than it was in 1963, according to the Education Data Initiative Given such statistics, it's no surprise that students often require financing to help pay tuition and other college-related expenses. For those who use loans to help cover college costs, it's important to understand the different types of financing available. This is especially critical because some of the lending options allow borrowers to leave school with far less accumulated debt.

The most notable benefit of subsidized loans is that the interest is deferred while the borrower is attending school at least part time. Interest payments on unsubsidized loans however, begin as soon as the funding is awarded.&n...

Happiness could be a good hair day. When you love to update your style, your hair can scream out your personality and show others how quiet or loud you can be, even without saying a word. The sound of styling Daily blow drying, extensive styling for special occasions, applying products and sprays on your hair for hold, texture, or volume are all normal practices when styling your hair. Unfortunately, many of these, especially if done often, can severely damage hair and leave it looking coarse, dry, and prone to breakage. Sometimes, if you listen well enough as you comb or brush through it, you can hear the damaged strands roughly calling out for help. When styling your hair, avoid applying very high heat for prolonged periods of time. It can cause severe damage and make your hair brittle. Though some of us can't do without a quick blow dry once a day, it is best to give your hair a rest from the noisy whir of the hair dryer as much as you can. Don't blow dry immediately aft...
