@JHWeissmann It's supply and demand. On line options have dramatically increased supply of education. Demand is flat to down due to demographics. The result on prices is predictable

@jselingo @PhilOnEdTech It’ll be the same playbook. Cue the consumer advocates and sen Warren and the OIG investigation

Once again @PhilOnEdTech gets it right. Happy to connect anyone in one of these groups to a registrar I know so they could do their job for a week.

@James_S_Murphy @NSClearinghouse As the former president of your Alma mater told me “ diamonds in, diamond out”. Have you adjusted for educational readiness difference of students? I doubt NU is admitting the same quality students as UoP. I bet NU outcomes would be the same with same incoming students
English
The new @NSClearinghouse data shows (yet again) how bad for-profit colleges are.
Retention of students at
4-yr public: 81%
4-yr private: 79%
4-yr for-profit: 47%.

If you can’t keep your drivers license you shouldn’t be president. I can’t believe il typing this.

@PhilOnEdTech @BretlynB Phil—it’s a classic misdirect. This USED is a disaster. From FAFSA mess to the eCar mess, they display a depth of incompetence in their over reach which is spectacular. They need a bogey man to distract else they would need to look in the mirror.

So the Arnold Ventures / Dept of Ed (and FTC) coalition takes the next step against Grand Canyon Education / GCU. This is a coordinated attack.
ED starts process, FTC joins in, then AV coalition files lawsuit.

@PhilOnEdTech @morganmundum If only there were a financing mechanism that allowed universities to use private capital to dramatically reduce risk to universities while shifting it to the private sector who should better understand the risks and returns of capital deployment.

@DrBethAkers It’s always interesting to see how the Dems forget they nationalized the student loan business and the federal government is the predatory lender in this narrative
English
Maddow bringing the misinformation on student loans. Banks aren't a part of this at all. Student loans are a government program. And there aren't any profits. This program is milking American taxpayers. Helping college grads at the expense of everyone else. Try again, Maddow.
Maddow Blog@MaddowBlog
Republicans are suing, in multiple states, to make sure that Americans have to pay more to banks on student loans. In an election year.
English
@delislealleges Get ready for the next slow motion train wreck. USED is run by policy wonks. What could possibly go wrong with actually needing to run an operation? Oh wait, we know.
English
Dept. of Ed taking over PSLF and TEACH grant servicing. Big news. These programs are difficult to administer, lots of requirements, paperwork. Tons of borrower frustration. Coincidence that they were created at the same time on the same bill? studentaid.gov/announcements-…

@DrBethAkers @PrestonCooper93 @JPittsAZ Private capital in higher Ed? Consumer advocates and progressive Dems will never go for it

Check out my new report with @PrestonCooper93 and @JPittsAZ.
Joe Pitts@JPittsAZ
American universities remain the envy of the world, but the dysfunction of the federal student loan program has broken the promise of higher education for too many students. New @AEI/@FREOPP report from @DrBethAkers, @PrestonCooper93, and I: aei.org/research-produ…

Then problem will be fixed on April Fools day. Perfect.

We are working closely with the IRS to assess and address these issues. Our initial analysis shows that fewer than 20% of previously submitted applications are affected. We will provide detailed information about the affected applications and remediation plans for these issues on Monday, April 1, 2024.

@EDAnalyst At that point in time does the secretary and undersecretary resign? The incompetence is stunning and yet, predictable.

@michaelbhorn USED is hastening demise of small unis with proposed rules on Rev share financing and state authorization. Only large, well resourced unis with sophisticated online infrastructure will survive. Unintended consequences.
English
This is fascinating. And telling. And if these arrangements won't be legal could be existential for many of these colleges I'd guess.

@BretlynB More unintended consequences. Proposed USED policies wrt OPM rev share financing and state authorization will put small unis at disadvantage and favor large, resourced ones with sophisticated operations. Demise of small unis will be hastened at hand of USED policies.
English
"Impact on OPMs A second implication of this data is that several OPMs have many partnerships with small and budget-constrained institutions who are potentially in for a bit of a bumpy ride, due to the challenging enrollment, financial, and regulatory environment."

@PrestonCooper93 Biden could buy more votes by executive order having feds pay off auto loans rather than student loans.
English
Auto loans overtook student loans in the fourth quarter of 2023. My thoughts are with everyone who likes to use the "second largest source of consumer debt" talking point. newyorkfed.org/microeconomics…

@James_S_Murphy The FAFSA is only difficult here due to the glaring incompetence of USED. From leaving out inflation tables (in violation of the law) to this SS# mess, the pain inflicted on families comes not from FAFSA but from ED’s inability to execute against their core mission.
English
I'm reminded of something a school counselor once said: "The harder a student's life is, the harder their FAFSA is to fill out." chalkbeat.org/2024/01/25/bet…

@James_S_Murphy Well, given demographics, that may be every possible student from Vermont.
