Latest posts by Prudence K. Magezi(see all)

    Over the past 30 years, the cost of college has had a steady growth, increasing from $4,160 to $10,740 and from $19,360 to $38,070 at private non-profit institutions at public 4-year colleges. In recent years, the rise in costs has pushed up demand for student loans alongside other forms of financial aid. Today, the national average of federal student loan borrowers is $35,210. According to national statistics, more than half of all students leave school with debt.  Although student debt loan tends to be associated with young adults (24 years and younger), average debt increases by age group with those 62 and older having the highest balance. As of 2022, the federal student loan portfolio totals more than $1.6 trillion, owed by about 43 million borrowers. 
    Debt Educators is a USA student loan debt relief company helping students, graduates, and parents in student loan debt crisis through student loan consolidation, helping them to pick out the appropriate program depending on their financial status, and assisting them through the debt approval process. Using PESTLE analysis, the report will discuss the business environment in which Debt Educators operates and how it is likely to be impacted by the different shifts and trends. The PESTLE analysis will help us to identify key drivers of change in the business environment and how they might affect the growth and profitability of debt educators in the long run.

    1.0 INTRODUCTION


    According to Friedman (2018), student loan debt is now the highest consumer debt category in the USA, ranking behind mortgages but higher than credit cards and auto loans. Approximately 44 million borrowers owe 1.5 trillion in student loans in USA with the average student owing $37,172 in student loan debt in 2016 (Friedman 2018). This has mainly been due to the rising cost of higher education, which has grown much faster than family incomes, plus the high-interest rates which have continued to grow through the years (Comet 2018).
    Lobosco (2018) noted that at least 42% of people who have gone to college used student loans, with the average graduate in 2016 owing $28,400. The report further states that women hold at least two-thirds of all student loan debt in the USA, paying more in interest over time due to the fact that they are slow payers in comparison to men (Lobosco 2018).
    According to statistics, the states of California, Texas, New York, and Florida carry the highest student loan debt outstanding among all resident borrowers in the USA (Friedman 2018).
