HBCU & Scholarship
Since the Reconstruction Era, debt has plagued African Americans and inhibited their ability to progress in society. One of today's most prevalent forms debt for African Americans are student loans :
-
Black college students often need to borrow more to finance their degrees, research shows. They also default on student loans at twice the rate of white borrowers.
-
Black students borrow and default more because they are more likely to come from low-income families, the research concluded. Their heavier debt loads make it harder to build wealth throughout adulthood.
-
More Black students need student loans for college than white students, and those taking them graduate with over $7,000 more in debt, on average. - Brookings Institution
