I can’t imagine what I would have done without your advice on reddit. I was a lurker, never commenter, but like so many, was guided by your poised voice of reason though this crazy process. Thank YOU for your service and for being our champion!

TISLA's been invaluable in understanding & navigating my student loans. TISLA's a lifesaver. TISLA was recommended to me by an attorney. After they resolved an issue with a university I had a few more questions / issues. The att'y could have made more bucks, but suggested I try TISLA & its reddit sites first. I thought "wha?" But it was great advice. I've recommended TISLA to many others. Please continue this public service

I'm a volunteer financial coach at Foundation Communities in Austin. I heard the Texas Standard interview with Betsy Mayotte on KUT and was impressed. Student loans are complicated, and it is wonderful that a service like TISLA is available to the public. Thank you!
