 Trump administration pushes colleges to ensure graduates repay federal student loans 

The Trump administration is intensifying pressure on colleges to ensure graduates and former students repay their federal student loans. The U.S. Department of Education issued guidance Wednesday, urging institutions to adopt practices that keep student delinquency and default rates low, emphasizing that responsibility lies not only with financial aid offices but also with overall institutional leadership. The department warned that colleges with high default rates could lose eligibility for federal student aid programs.

According to the Education Department, more than 1,800 colleges have student loan nonpayment rates of 25% or higher, based on borrowers entering repayment between January 2020 and May 2025 who were more than 90 days delinquent. Over 42 million Americans carry education debt exceeding $1.6 trillion. Critics argue that the administration’s approach scapegoats schools while reducing support for borrowers. Staff cuts and program eliminations have left hundreds of thousands of borrowers in backlogs for affordable repayment plans or forgiveness decisions, with median household monthly bills potentially rising sharply under recent legislative changes.
