As the cost of higher education continues to grow, a proposed bill in Harrisburg looks to offer a new way to pay.
The bill would create a Delayed Payment Plan (DPP) for those attending community college in Pennsylvania.
These loans would be interest free and would be paid back over 10 years. Students who receive this loan would have to live in Pennsylvania for 10 years or pay off the loan before leaving.
Advocates for the bill say by delaying payments and allowing for students to graduate without debt, it will allow more people to gain access to a two-year degree which would help grow Pennsylvania’s economy.
The bill which has been cosponsored by several house Democrats has been referred to the House Education Committee.
