Back in 2013 the predecessor of the current administration has introduced the so-called CAR. It has been on the news recently that finally the White House is trying to cope with the US higher education related to the student loan debt.  The American public eager to know what public policies on higher ed are being cooked in the kitchen.  If the Congress votes for them, then there will be huge impacts on higher learning institutions, students, their family and the society.  Apparently, the policy has shifted and perhaps it has made a U-turn from ignoring the American public interests to something in supporting them.  This shift in Higher Ed policy occurs because the student loan debt has been a hot topic in the campaign trails.

Basically HEA is ≅ with CAR with a little, but very important twist to limit the amount of taken student loans which previously is not one of the elements in CAR.  However, this little tweak has huge impacts on some higher learning institutions in that it will affect their enrollment significantly.

Based on publicly available NCES data, in 2013 AAEA has calculated and shared to the American public a proxy of the college rating under CAR.  This rating will be updated with the new component in HEA policy.  The results will be shared soon to the American public through AAEA’s website.  Because of the new component (limit on student loan) will be added, then under HEA, the college rating will produce a College Stressed Test Score (CSTS) as a proxy of an institution’s survival probability under the new proposed HEA policy.  For now, the CAR still relevant, and it can be accessed by clicking this link.
