What it does
The STUDENT Act would require the disclosure of the total amount of interest that would be paid over the life of certain federal student loans, based on the standard repayment plan applicable to the borrower’s total outstanding principal. This information would be included in the existing loan disclosure requirements under Section 433(a) of the Higher Education Act of 1965. The bill aims to improve transparency for borrowers by helping them understand the long-term cost of their federal student loans. It affects borrowers with certain federal student loans and would amend Section 455(p) of the Higher Education Act to mandate this additional disclosure.
