Student Loans

Millions of student loan borrowers have had their debt forgiven under the Biden administration. Could President-elect Donald Trump claw back that relief?

Lenders often encourage federal student loan borrowers to sign up for automatic payments. But a new report shows the decision can backfire.

The Biden Administration has outlined two pathways for student loan borrowers facing financial hardship to get debt relief.

The Biden administration introduced a proposal to deliver student loan forgiveness to millions of people experiencing devastating financial hardship.

Student loan payments for some 8 million borrowers will remain on pause for six months or longer, a spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Education said. 

The Biden administration announced on Thursday that it was forgiving another $4.5 billion in student debt for over 60,000 borrowers.

The Biden administration’s new sweeping student loan forgiveness plan is temporarily blocked again, a federal judge ruled.

The Education Department has extended the deadline for its Fresh Start program for defaulted student loan borrowers until early Wednesday morning.

Republican-led states have sued the Education Department to block the Biden administration from carrying out its sweeping new student loan forgiveness plan.

College students may be borrowing more for the coming year in part because of debt cancellation expectations, recent research suggests.

Many people who borrow private student loans are required to get a co-signer, a requirement that can spread the pain if repayment becomes a challenge.

With the fate of federal student loan forgiveness programs facing uncertainty, borrowers should explore the many state-level relief options available.

The U.S. Department of Education is still finalizing its new student loan forgiveness plan. Here are the four groups likely to benefit.

A federal court ruled that President Joe Biden’s SAVE plan can’t proceed with lower payments or debt forgiveness for millions of federal student loan borrowers.

The Biden administration announced it will cancel $1.2 billion in student debt for 35,000 workers.

The Biden administration will place about three million student loan borrowers enrolled in its new SAVE repayment plan in forbearance while it defends the program in court.

A federal judge on Monday temporarily barred the Education Department from allowing additional loan forgiveness under a key component of President Joe Biden’s student debt relief plan.

The U.S. Department of Education may extend the eligibility of a popular student loan forgiveness program to early childhood educators.

Student loan borrowers have until the end of June to meet a deadline that could lead to quicker debt forgiveness.

The Biden administration announced on Wednesday that it would forgive $7.7 billion in student debt for more than 160,000 borrowers.
