Guaranteed Student Loan Prepayment: How Much of a Free Lunch Is There?

Fischer, Frederick J.

Journal of Student Financial Aid, v19 n3 p15-23 Fall 1989

This article investigates the extent to which student borrowers might be induced to prepay by an offer from the government to share a portion of its savings expected from prepayment. The analysis suggests that potential savings are not likely to be large enough to induce significant prepayment. (Author/MLW)
