PSLF Coalition
Read More About the PSLF Coalition
In 2007 when PSLF was created, there was little information for borrowers to educate them on how to navigate the program. In October 2017, when borrowers first started applying for forgiveness, the GAO found that the PSLF program had denial rates upwards of 99%. Among the reasons for denial, borrowers were told that they did not qualify because they were under the wrong loan program or had the wrong repayment plan. The PSLF Coalition was created in the face of efforts by the Administration and some Members of Congress to eliminate the program.
