To whom it may concern:
On behalf of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (NASFAA), we respectfully submit to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) our comments on ED’s proposed rules for Financial Value Transparency and Gainful Employment (GE), Financial Responsibility, Administrative Capability, Certification Procedures, and Ability to Benefit (ATB)
(Docket ID Docket ID ED–2023–OPE–0089).

While the benefits of postsecondary education have been well documented through decades of research, the value of a college degree has been challenged in recent years by some, potentially deterring prospective students from pursuing higher education. Accountability and transparency are some of the best defenses against arguments that college is not worth the significant investment of time or money. Students deserve to know their postsecondary institution offers a quality education that will help them reach their goals, whatever those may be.
