Join us and Angela Colatriano of College Ave Student Loans on Wednesday, June 9 at 8:30pm ET for an information-packed Facebook Live on loans.

OCM Item of the Week
This past week, we held a Zoom event featuring seven OCM Student Ambassadors who dished about all things having to do with life on campus.
They were awesome!
Among some of the things they discussed were move-in essentials, dorm necessities, how to deal with living away from home, and how to handle roommates.
A must-have item that got a thumbs up from each student was OCM's Showa flops: Anti-Microbial Flip Flops for the shower that have holes in the bottom so the water can run through. (Spoiler Alert: College dorm showers can get grungy.)
And here they are included in a great shower bundle.
