If you attended Katharine Gibbs School and feel like you were scammed, misled, or pressured into massive student loans, you're not alone. And more importantly, you may not have to pay them back.

But here’s the catch: you must file a claim (unless you were covered under the automatic Sweet v. Cardona relief). And because DOE systems are overloaded with BDR claims, your best shot is submitting a bulletproof application with legal and historical evidence.
As of May 2025, wage garnishment, tax refund seizures, and default collections are back on. If you defaulted on loans from Katharine Gibbs, you're at risk.
Even if you haven't defaulted yet, now is the time to act.
