The highest-stakes financial decision they'll make in training.
For a physician with $200k–$400k in loans, choosing the right repayment path, versus the wrong one, routinely swings six figures. Most students never get clear, independent guidance until it's expensive to fix.
of U.S. healthcare employers are nonprofit or government, meaning most physicians can qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness if they plan correctly.
Industry estimates; verify eligibility at studentaid.gov.PSLF uptake among early-career family physicians more than tripled in recent years as awareness grew, but only for those who track qualifying payments from day one.

A complete, ready-to-share resource, and your name on it.
Everything is free for unlimited students and residents. There's nothing to license and no per-seat cost, the only thing we ask is that we verify you're a school before handing over the full kit.
The shareable tool
A free, login-free decision engine you can put in front of every student, orientation, the LMS, your financial-aid portal, residency welcome emails. Works on any device.
The communications toolkit
Copy-paste email, newsletter and portal blurbs, social posts, a one-line directory description, and orientation talking points, all written for you. Unlocked after we verify your school.
A co-branded landing page
A page that pairs your program's name and logo with the tool, so students arrive on something that looks endorsed by you, because it is. Hosted by us, linkable from anywhere.
Genuinely independent advice
Your result is driven only by the student's math. We're never paid to steer anyone toward a lender, and for PSLF-track borrowers we plainly say "don't refinance."
A static spreadsheet vs. a living tool.
Many offices share a downloadable loan spreadsheet. It's a thoughtful gesture, but for a graduating class, a self-serve tool does the job a spreadsheet can't: instantly, on any device, with no formulas to break and no consultation to book.
| For your students | A downloadable spreadsheet | AttendingFi |
|---|---|---|
| Time to an answer | Hours of manual entry and reading | Minutes, guided step by step |
| Manual calculations | Required, students build their own scenarios | None, the engine does the math |
| Stays current with federal rules | No, frozen the day it's downloaded | Yes, updated as rules change |
| Physician-specific modeling | Generic; depends on the template | Built for physicians & dentists, training income, PSLF, specialty |
| Works on any device | Needs spreadsheet software | Any browser, no download, no login |
| Requires a consultation | Often, to interpret results | No, a clear result on screen |
| Institution-wide distribution | File to email and version-manage | One link, orientation, portal, exit counseling |
| Risk of formula errors | Yes, a broken cell gives a wrong answer | None, no formulas to break |
This isn't a knock on any colleague's spreadsheet, it's about what scales to a whole class. A tool every student can open in a browser, finish in minutes, and trust to be current is simply easier to distribute and easier to act on.

Orientation talking points
Managing your student loans (free resource: attendingfi.com) • Your repayment choice is one of the biggest financial decisions of your career, the wrong plan can cost six figures. • Most teaching hospitals are nonprofit/government, so your residency may count toward Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), but only if you certify your employment every year, starting now. • Do NOT refinance federal loans if you're pursuing PSLF, it permanently forfeits forgiveness. • Run your own numbers free at attendingfi.com before making any decision, and revisit it whenever your situation changes (new job, marriage, kids, income jump).

When you request access, we can build your program a co-branded version of the tool, your name and logo alongside ours, so students arrive somewhere familiar and trusted. It's hosted by us, kept current automatically, and costs nothing.
logo
Your students' free, independent student-loan answer.
To build it we just need three things, which you can provide in the request form: your program name, your logo (a URL now, or email us a high-res file), and an optional brand color. We'll send you the live link to review before you share it.
What administrators ask us.
Why do we have to request access instead of just copying the toolkit?
Two reasons. First, it lets us verify the request genuinely comes from a school, which keeps the resource credible for everyone. Second, it lets us build you a co-branded page and know which institutions are sharing AttendingFi so we can support you. The verification is quick, usually 1–2 business days, and everything stays free.
How do you verify we're really a school?
We check your institutional email domain and website, and we may send a quick confirmation to your financial-aid office. Once verified, your account is approved and you can sign in any time with a one-time code.
Is there any cost to our school or our students?
No. AttendingFi is completely free for unlimited students and residents, including the co-branded page. There's nothing to license, provision, or sign.
How do you make money, and does it bias the advice?
Your result is driven only by the student's own numbers, we are never paid to change it. We may earn a referral fee if a student later chooses to refinance through a partner lender, but only when refinancing is genuinely the cheapest path for them. For PSLF-track borrowers, the tool plainly says not to refinance. See our full disclosures.
Is it accurate to the current federal rules?
Yes. It models the 2026 federal framework, the RAP plan, the capped legacy IBR that protects high earners, PSLF including the training-year nuances, and a private-refinance comparison, and we keep it current as rules are implemented. Our methodology page shows exactly how it calculates.
Do students have to create an account?
No. The full analysis is free with no login. Students can optionally create a free account afterward to save their plan and unlock advanced, year-by-year modeling, but it's never required to get an answer.
Is this financial advice we're endorsing?
AttendingFi provides educational estimates and modeling, not individualized financial, tax, or legal advice. Sharing it is like sharing any reputable educational calculator, students are directed to verify program rules at studentaid.gov and to confirm major decisions with a qualified advisor.
