you CAN get your perkins loan forgiven if you teach in a district with a given amount of disadvantaged students. this was told to me by a man in our finacial aid office. check out the link it is very detailed and specific. i plan on possibly going to Detroit to teach b/c they are offering HUUUUUUUGGGGGE incentives especially for those getting certified in critical shortage areas (ie math, science)
anyway it takes alot of research, just search around for stuff on the net like "student loan cancellation" or something similar
for those of you still in undergrad (teaching) i have some other avenues (sholarships i have gotten) that i would be happy to share just email me.
sincerely in education,
meeks
