For many, the student loan repayment system isn’t working.

Survey findings show half of Black borrowers and 40% of Hispanic or Latino borrowers have defaulted on student loans—compared to 29% of White borrowers.

@Knott_Katherine @insidehighered Congrats, Katherine! So happy for you!

Don’t let defaulted loans ⬇️ your credit score. ​

When you enroll in Fresh Start, we will remove the record of default from your credit report. In some cases, this can improve your credit rating. Sign up before the program ends on Sept. 30, 2024. https://t.co/q9KfXW1HNv

Recent changes are helping more federal student loan borrowers get on a path to successful repayment.

1 example: The new SAVE plan, which prevents balances from spiraling out of control. #SOTU #StateOfTheUnion https://t.co/ue5bRjJq0S

But under a new federal repayment plan many borrowers are finding repayment more affordable. #SOTU https://t.co/ue5bRjJq0S
