IC Alums Do Fantastic Job of Repaying Federal Student LoansContributed by Larry Chambers on 09/18/03 The Department of Education just released cohort default rates for the fiscal year ending 2001. Ithaca College's student default rate is extremely low at 1.3 percent. The national average is 5.4 percent. This demonstrates that the outreach of the Office of Financial Aid to student borrowers regarding their responsibilities for repayment is successful and that IC alumni are doing an excellent job in meeting their financial obligations for the federal loans that they utilized. Planning for IC's Veterans Day celebration (November 11) is well underway. As part of the event program, the committee wishes to recognize all members of the College community who have served our country in the armed forces. Read more . . .
