| Abstract | Student debt balances are ballooning, posing a serious threat to the financial security of millions of borrowers across the country. In the last 15 years, total outstanding student debt has grown six-fold and now hovers at over $1.5 trillion. Student debt has significant short- and long-term impacts on individuals, their communities, and the broader economy. The crisis demands urgent action to alleviate its impacts on individuals, their families, their communities, and the broader economy. While it is too early to say what the long-term impacts of the crisis will be, what has unfolded so far indicates a need to curb further escalation. Solving the crisis will require solutions from a range of stakeholders and actors--and states have an opportunity to act immediately. To provide options to states to address this growing threat to financial security, Aspen Institute Financial Security Program conducted a scan of possible state solutions to address student loan burdens. The identified solutions fit into three types of actions that align with the borrower experience, with particular consideration for how they help low-income borrowers and borrowers of color: (1) Reduce the out-of-pocket cost of attendance; (2) Protect students as they navigate existing debt; and (3) Decrease existing student debt burdens.
