UE Reports Some of the Lowest Loan Default Rates in Indiana
|
|
The University of Evansville was recently recognized for having one of the lowest student loan default rates not only in the state of Indiana, but also across the nation! The report came from LendEDU, which provides information on student, personal, and home equity loans.
Using just-released data from the U.S. Department of Education, LendEDU reported the student loan default rates among over 4,500 colleges and universities in the United States. The report also listed the average default rate among each of the 50 states.
While Indiana reported a state average of 9.57%, UE was significantly lower with a rate of 3.30%. In a time when students and families are concerned about the costs of higher education, the University of Evansville is pleased to offer an environment where the burden of student loan repayment is much less than that of other higher education institutions.
