What does the default rate mean?
A student is considered to be in default on a student loan if they have not made a payment in more than 270 days. The official student loan default rate for a school is calculated by measuring how many students are in default three years after graduation. Note that the default rate only takes into account federal loans, not private.
When compared to the average three-year default rate of 9.3%, the default rate at Baptist Missionary Association Theological Seminary is poor. This could indicate that students attending Baptist Missionary Association Theological Seminary are relying heavily on student loans, including unsubsidized student loans.
Review financial aid offers carefully and be honest with yourself about whether you can truly afford this college. If you will need to utilize loans each year, be sure to calculate the total amount borrowed after four to five years, and an estimated monthly payment. If your loan includes an unsubsidized amount, can you afford to make the interest payments while you are attending college? If not, be sure to add that to the total.
Asking the tough questions now can help prevent you from starting your future with a large amount of debt that you cannot reasonably afford.
Declaring bankruptcy does not remove student loan debt owed to the Federal government. They can garnish part of your income if you do not pay back your loans.
What's the difference? Unsubsidized student loans accrue interest each month, even while you are in college. Unless you pay that interest each month, what you owe after graduation might surprise you.
