  • California May Join List of States With “Student Borrower Bill of Rights”

  • Julian Castro’s Student Loan Plan

    Former Obama housing Secretary, San Antonio mayor and Democratic Party presidential candidate Julian Castro has proposed a detailed plan for student loan forgiveness. It’s part of what he calls his “People First” plan for education reform. Since this is primarily a student loan blog, we’ll focus first on the aspects of his plan specific to […]

  • Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos Ends “Gainful Employment Rule”

    In 2014, the Obama Administration attached some strings to federal student loan aid going to for-profit colleges and universities. This was the deal: In exchange for continued access to student loan dollars, for-profit schools had to show that students were finding gainful employment upon graduation and paying off their loans. Additionally, the new standard required […]

  • Feds May Crack Down on Student Loan Fraud

    This here is why we can’t have nice things. At least two of ‘y’all tried to reduce your monthly student loan payments by reporting a household size of 93.

  • Senator Bernie Sanders’ Student Loan Plan

    Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) has rolled out his plan to address student loan debt, and it’s a doozy. First, Sanders proposes we cancel all $1.6 trillion of outstanding student loan debt outright – including both federal and private loans. This would directly affect about 45 million Americans. The direct savings for the average student loan […]

  • Student Loan Tax Elimination Act Introduced in Senate

    A new bill in the Senate, the Student Loan Tax Elimination Act, would eliminate student loan origination fees on federal loans. If approved, the measure could save borrowers billions over the next five years. Supporters say that origination fees on student loans amount to a “hidden tax” on student loan borrowers. And since the Department […]

  • Joe Biden and His Controversial History With Student Loans

    Under current law, federal student loans are generally not dischargeable in bankruptcy. Borrowers have Joe Biden to thank for that. In contrast, most other forms of consumer debt can be discharged through the bankruptcy process.  Only a limited number of debts, such as child support payments, alimony, overdue taxes, and criminal fines, are non-dischargeable. But […]

  • You Could Soon Use a Section 529 Plan To Pay Off Student Loans. Here’s Why That Might Be a Bad Idea.

    You may soon be allowed to use Section 529 plans to pay up to $10,000 in student loan debt. Earlier this month, the House Ways and Means Committee unanimously passed a bill called the SECURE Act. That is, “Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement.” Among other things, this bill expands Section 529 plans to include […]
