Cohort Default Rate Disclosure Statement

A schools Cohort Default Rate (CDR) is the percentage of a school's borrowers who enter repayment on certain Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program or William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program loans during a particular federal fiscal year (FY), October 1st to September 30th, and default or meet other specified conditions prior to the end of the second following fiscal year. In 2019 our Cohort Default Rate (CDR) was 6.01%. In 2020 SPSCC's CDR was 5.38%.  In the event that the institution's CDR rises above the national average, this site will be updated to reflect such a change.
