NEWARK, Del.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sallie Mae, the nation’s saving, planning, and paying for college
company, will again offer students and families a little extra incentive
to start planning for college. Sallie Mae’s Plan
for College Sweepstakes
awards $1,000 monthly to individuals who
register for the company’s free college planning tools.

Sallie Mae offers an array of free planning-for-college tools, including
the College
Planning Calculator
, which helps students and families research
college costs and build a customized savings plan, and Scholarship
Search by Sallie Mae
, a customizable scholarship tool with access to
5 million scholarships valued at $24 billion. Registering for the tools
is free, and Sallie Mae does not sell or share any information with
third-parties.

The following high school and college students received $1,000 for
college in 2016 through the Sallie Mae Plan for College Sweepstakes:

  • Allison House of Coral Springs, Florida
  • Kiara Moore of San Antonio, Texas
  • Emma Tarawally of Claymont, Delaware

  • Timothy Shields of Houston, Texas

In addition, Imani Troy of Lexington, North Carolina, received $5,000 as
the sweepstakes winner for National Scholarship Month—November.

“The research
is clear, families with a plan to pay for college save significantly
more and borrow less,” said Martha Holler, senior vice president, Sallie
Mae. “Our monthly sweepstakes provides a little extra help to families
for getting on the planning-for-college track.”

Sallie Mae recommends following a 1-2-3 approach when it comes to paying
for college: first, maximize money that does not need to be repaid, such
as scholarships and grants; second, explore federal student loans; and,
third, consider a responsible private student loan.
