What is Borrower Defense to Repayment?
Borrower Defense to Repayment is a program that allows students to have their federal student loans forgiven if their school misled them or engaged in other misconduct. It’s like a safety net for students who didn’t get what they were promised. Did you know? The Borrower Defense program has been around since 1995, but it gained more attention after several high-profile for-profit college closures.
