Inside an actual report

Two risks.
Different answers.

In this University of Virginia sample, none of the 63 programs with measured earnings falls below the earnings benchmark. Yet the report estimates $27.6 million in historical annual graduate borrowing above the new loan caps.

That distinction matters. It helps leadership separate borrowing pressure from earnings-accountability exposure and direct the next round of investigation.

Illustrative assessment, September 2026. Earnings are measured for 63 of 187 programs; unmeasured programs are not counted as passing. Borrowing exposure uses historical data and is not a forecast of current-year revenue loss.

University of Virginia key-figures slide: 63 of 187 programs measured, zero below the earnings benchmark, and an estimated $27.6 million in historical annual graduate borrowing above new caps.

Before you order

A few practical details.

What happens after I order?

Within 1 business day, we follow up to confirm your institution, including any branch campuses, and your peer set. We then generate and review the report before release.

Expect a download link within about 3 business days after your institution and peer set are confirmed and payment has cleared. Payments from a US bank account can take a few business days to clear.

How do access and updates work?

During the initial rollout, we deliver downloadable report files, leadership slides, a landscape briefing deck, and an Excel workbook. Online access will follow as it becomes available.

Your purchase includes 365 days of access from the purchase date, with updated reports using new federal data released during that period. That includes the release expected in spring 2027. You can keep using the files already delivered internally after access expires.

What does the community-college report cover?

The community-college report focuses on earnings accountability, including certificate-program exposure, peer comparisons, and the underlying program data. Graduate loan-limit analysis applies where the institution has relevant graduate programs.

How do I get the subscriber discount or an invoice?

Annual On EdTech+ Individual subscribers and On EdTech+ Team subscribers receive 20% off: $1,600 for colleges and universities or $1,000 for community colleges. Monthly Individual subscriptions do not include this discount. Eligibility is verified using your subscriber email when ordering; no discount code is needed.

Choose “Request an invoice / PO” if your institution needs invoicing or a purchase order. The request form collects your billing details. We send a Stripe invoice payable by card or US bank account. Both report types can also be purchased online.

Is this an official determination of program eligibility?

No. This is an independent planning assessment built on federal data, with sources, methods, and limitations explained in the report. Public data can identify exposure, but cannot fully describe your current students or predict official determinations. Programs without measured earnings are identified separately.

Can I share the report with colleagues?

Yes. The purchase is for one institution, with any branch-campus scope confirmed before production. The report, slides, and data are intended for internal use across your team. You do not need an On EdTech+ subscription to buy the report. System and market views are planned.
