Student loan borrowing to pay for postsecondary education continues to reach new heights. Consequently, students are leaving campuses with higher debt levels than ever before.

It is imperative that the higher education community continue its vigilant observation of student borrowing, and remain aware of the consequences that student loan default has for students and the institutions they attend.

Towards that end, TG remains committed to assisting the financial aid community in engaging in new and innovative strategies in default aversion. This commitment led to the creation of the Default Aversion Effectiveness Assessment, a self-assessment tool designed to help institutions measure their effectiveness and progress in debt management and default aversion.

The Default Aversion Effectiveness Assessment is designed to:

  • Validate your institution’s current processes, goals and measures;
  • Benchmark your institution’s efforts against other institutions; and
  • Provide recommendations for enhancing your institution’s overall default aversion plan.

We invite institutions to use this self-assessment tool, examine the responses and results, and provide feedback to TG about how we can enhance this tool.
