right now its just an application. The confirmation email says they'll contact you if they need more documents or something

We'll contact you if we need additional information

We may need additional information from you to process your application. If we do, we'll contact you by email with additional instructions. The following are examples of situations where we'll follow up with you:

• We need additional documentation from you to verify your income.

• If you were enrolled as a "dependent student" anytime between July 1, 2021 and June 30, 2022, we may need information about your parents' income.

• We cannot match you to our loan records based on the information provided in your application.

looks like it is actually happening though. You can apply from now till December of next year.

        Thanks for the clarification. I do worry that the courts will create a legal fiction to justify nullifying this decision, but we'll all cross that bridge when it comes to it.

        Tangentially, I saw your post but didn't respond there, so I'll do so here: don't worry about becoming bourgeois. Engels was such. If you're feeling anxiety over losing touch with socialism, it's because you're feeling less financial distress, but having less anxiety or dread in your life won't put the toothpaste back in the brush. Beyond social and economic equity, you would recognize socialism as the only answer that can respond to ecological and social catastrophe.

          Yeah if the gop wants to shitcan it the scotus will just say "lol nope" and scribble a bunch of dicks on the opinion because the law is whatever they say it is now. Potus should still do it, and then have them all shot bc they said he can legally do that if he wants.

      Even if this supreme court looked at it, I would be surprised if they turned around and said that the department of education has no power over its own debt/lending and must collect on its own loans. It would essentially be stripping power from the executive branch which they won't do.

      It seems like a gas station offering free snacks, and getting sued by their own customers saying "No! You have to charge us for these!"
