Logan College of Chiropractic Reports Low Student-Loan Default Rate
Logan College of Chiropractic/University Programs was recently notified by the Federal Student Aid Office of the U.S. Department of Education that its student loan default rate for FY2010 was .6 percent, considerably better than the national rate of 6.7 percent and the 6 percent average for Missouri schools.
"Logan's extremely low student default rate speaks highly of our graduates' ability and willingness to pay their financial obligations," said Dr. Boyd A. Bradshaw, vice president of enrollment management at Logan College. "Logan traditionally has had a low loan default rate, which is reflective in the strong value of a Logan education."
