What this bill would do

This bill is called the Student Transparency for Understanding Decisions in Education Net Terms Act'' or the STUDENT Act''. It proposes to change the Higher Education Act of 1965. The goal is to require the disclosure of the total amount of interest that would be paid over the life of certain Federal student loans. This calculation would be based on the standard repayment plan and the borrower's total outstanding principal.
