Federal Student Loans

Over 1,800 higher education institutions received nonpayment rate data from the U.S. Department of Education (ED). For many, the numbers served as a critical warning. Draft Cohort Default Rates (CDRs) are on the horizon. Institutions that act now will be better positioned to protect their federal funding, while those that wait risk sanctions and funding loss. Goal Solutions partners with institutions to proactively manage federal student loan portfolios, ensuring compliance, minimizing defaults, and safeguarding funding before risks escalate.

Understanding Program Gravity

While most institutions know their Cohort Default Rate (CDR), few understand where that default is being created. Our framework—Program Gravity—identifies which academic programs or majors are driving default and nonpayment concentrations. Knowing your Program Gravity allows for targeted, earlier interventions—focused on the right programs, at the right time, with the right approach—helping you address risk at its source and improve portfolio health.
