What Borrowers Need to Know About Loan Forgiveness

If you attended the Minnesota School of Business (MSB) or its sister institution Globe University, you may be eligible for full student loan forgiveness through the Borrower Defense to Repayment (BDR) program. These for-profit schools were at the center of major lawsuits and regulatory crackdowns—misconduct that directly harmed students and ultimately led to the schools' closure in 2017.

Legal Action & Misconduct Findings

MSB and Globe University didn’t just cross the line—they trampled it. Here's what multiple investigations and court decisions uncovered:

Misrepresentation of Criminal Justice Programs

In 2014, the Minnesota Attorney General sued MSB and Globe University for misleading students. They falsely claimed their criminal justice programs would qualify students for law enforcement careers, even though graduates were ineligible for positions with state and local agencies. This left many students with debt and no viable path into the promised profession.

Unlawful Lending Practices

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that the schools issued illegal student loans with interest rates up to 18%, violating state lending laws. These loans were not licensed and placed an unbearable financial burden on students who already faced bleak job prospects.

Whistleblower Victory

In 2011, a former dean filed a whistleblower lawsuit, stating she was fired for objecting to unethical school practices. A jury sided with her and awarded $395,000, confirming internal awareness and retaliation tied to misconduct.

Borrower Defense to Repayment: Your Legal Path to Loan Forgiveness

Thanks to these documented violations, former MSB and Globe University students are strong candidates for Borrower Defense to Repayment. If you were misled, defrauded, or harmed by these illegal practices, you may qualify to have your federal loans wiped out.
