How does Summer work?

Summer’s easy-to-use online platform will check your eligibility across dozens of federal and state loan repayment and forgiveness programs. Based on your loan and financial situation, the Summer team will then help you enroll in a new plan.

On average, AFT student loan borrowers are using Summer to reduce their monthly payments by $170 a month, saving a total of $57,769 over the life of their loans. Join today!


Why did we choose Summer?

Summer was founded by student loan borrowers, who understand the frustration of the repayment process. And Summer is already working with union members like you to help them save on their student loan payments.

We’re confident you’ll like how Summer cuts through the confusion and complexity of your student loan payments. The Summer tool and team, working closely with the AFT’s student debt experts, help you through all the options to consider, guide you to top savings recommendations, make decision-making easier, and handle all of the paperwork. Yes—less paperwork!

Whether you have no idea where to start, or just want to confirm that you’re in the right repayment plan, Summer is a trusted, secure resource for you. 

As a member of AFT, you are not alone. Join today for FREE until September.

When dealing with student loan debt, as with so many other challenges we face today, we can accomplish together what we could not do alone. While we continue the fight against student debt, we hope you’ll take advantage of this extraordinary new member benefit.
