New Report: Congress & Student Debt

Hi Mahipal,

We just released our largest report ever: Congress & Student Debt 

During the last election cycle, student debt became a big political issue, so we decided to take a deeper look. 

 

Our report includes:

- 2 Interactive maps highlighting student debt statistics by Congressional District & State (which you can embed on your site if you'd like)

- Key Observations (examples below):

  • Borrowers from Republican states default on their student loans about 55% more often than those from Democratic states
  • Borrowers from Democratic states have 25% more student loan debt than borrowers from Republican states
- Average student debt and default rates for each State/Congressional District

- Extensive research for all 535 Congressmen including college affordability initiatives they have supported


We would love for you to check out our study and hear your thoughts. We think it is a great resource and includes some interesting insights.

 

Best,

Nate Matherson
