Transforming CDR Management: Strategies for a Brighter Financial Future
Navigating the complexities of your school’s Cohort Default Rate (CDR) is more than an administrative task; it’s a strategic endeavor that significantly influences the financial futures of both your student borrowers and your institution. A high CDR not only jeopardizes your students' financial stability but also risks your school's access to federal financial aid programs — a lifeline for many educational institutions.
The Dilemma: Outsourcing vs. In-House Management
Outsource to a Third Party: Handing off default management to a third party may seem like a relief, but it comes with significant drawbacks. Lack of control over student interactions, absence of personalized repayment strategies, and high costs are just the tip of the iceberg. Moreover, an external provider’s disconnect from your student community can lead to generic, less effective interventions.
Tackle In-House with Manual Processes: Opting for in-house management gives you more control but can quickly become overwhelming. Wrestling with complex data from the Department of Education and transforming it into actionable insights is a Herculean task. The manual, error-prone process of data manipulation and borrower outreach can leave your team exhausted, often without the desired improvement in CDR.
