Trump administration removes repayment applications: What it means for student loan borrowers

This disruption follows a court ruling blocking the Biden administration’s new SAVE plan. While experts expect the pause to be temporary, it raises concerns about long-term impacts on borrowers, especially those relying on loan forgiveness and affordable repayment options.
