"Take the case of Bryant & Stratton College, which has six campuses across New York State and 2,277 students who received $9 million in TAP benefits in 2015—about one in six TAP dollars claimed by for-profit colleges. According to the U.S. Department of Education’s gainful employment database, four of Bryant & Stratton’s 16 programs of study failed the debt-to-earnings test, including a bachelor’s degree program in criminal justice. Graduates in this program make annual loan payments of $4,272 annually on a median salary of $29,036, meaning that they must devote 15 percent of their annual income to repaying student loans. Not surprisingly, Bryant & Stratton students struggle with their loan balances. Only 18 percent of Bryant & Stratton students are able to make even a single payment to their student loan principal within three years of entering repayment, according to the federal College Scorecard."
