EdAssist through PeopleJoy helps determine eligibility for PSLF and assists in the application process.
To help relieve the burden of educational debt and achieve greater financial well-being, the Board of Pensions provides EdAssist — at no cost — to ministers enrolled in the Benefits Plan of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
EdAssist, offered through the educational debt reduction firm PeopleJoy, provides coaching to help members understand and apply for the PSLF program if they qualify.
A personal student loan coach will help you understand your student loans and determine eligibility for PSLF. If you are eligible, they will assist with the application process, including completing the appropriate forms and collecting and organizing required documentation. Results of your coaching session may include loan consolidation, PSLF, and income-driven repayment.
The Board of Pensions provides EdAssist at no charge to ministers enrolled in the Benefits Plan of the PC(USA). If you are not a minister enrolled in the plan but are a member serving a PC(USA)-related organization, contact Presbyterian Mission Agency’s Financial Aid for Service to apply.
Complete the EdAssist Interest Form and submit it to the Board of Pensions. A PeopleJoy representative will reach out to you to start the coaching and application process.
