BANGOR, MAINE – Husson University, in coordination with the Finance

Authority of Maine, has partnered with SALTSM, an educational program

designed to incent sound financial management in college students and

recent alumni.  Husson is the first institution in Maine to implement

the program.

Members receive proactive communication about student loan repayment options, one-on-one repayment counseling with student loan experts, a personalized online dashboard to track all their federal and private student loans in one place and compare payment options, and more.

SALT was established by American Student Assistance®, a 56-year-old

nonprofit that works to assist college students and alumni in

successfully managing and repaying their student loan debt.

SALT schools’ students and alumni automatically become members and gain

full access to the program’s services. Multiple administrative offices on campus, from financial aid to student affairs, alumni and development, will actively partner with ASA on a year-long “Get on the Money” campaign to drive SALT awareness and engagement among on-campus students and alumni.
