A low score means students may be paying too much for the earnings they receive after completing the program. | Borrowers not paying on timeThis may be a sign that borrowers do not earn enough to repay their loans. A high late-payment rate can also increase a school’s financial risk, which in some cases could contribute to closure. | Net Price / YrWhat students typically pay each year after grants and scholarships.
