Adtalem was the largest recipient of the now defunct Federal Perkins Loans program

Adtalem was the largest recipient of Federal Perkins Loans in 2015, getting $18M from the US government. What happened to all that money? And now that this flow of cash is removed, where is the difference being made up?

The borrowers are paying it back? From the job they could have gotten without the stellar schooling?

Wrong again! The cohort rate is like 11% which is better than a lot of other schools with less students. And where’s the cash? The borrowers are paying it back you moron!

Add this Perkins mess to the 5-year cohort default rate (CDR) of 43% and a -4% payback of principle after 5 years, and you have a disaster.
