Summary
The Clean Slate through Rehabilitation Act changes the Higher Education Act so that once a borrower completes loan rehabilitation, any negative credit information tied to that loan is removed. It affects federal student loan borrowers who have successfully rehabilitated their defaulted loans, improving their credit histories. The goal is to give these borrowers a fresh start and better access to credit.
