Salter College Lawsuit: Are You Eligible for 
Student Loan Forgiveness?

If you attended Salter College, this could change your life. Thousands of former students are now eligible for Borrower Defense to Repayment (BDR)—a program that can cancel 100% of your federal student loan debt due to school misconduct.

But here’s the catch: Not everyone knows they qualify. Even fewer have taken the right steps to apply.

Let’s fix that today.

Why Is Salter College Under Legal Fire?

Salter College, operated by Premier Education Group, is no stranger to controversy. Here’s what landed them on the Department of Education’s radar:

• Deceptive Enrollment Tactics: The Massachusetts Attorney General sued Salter College for misleading students—especially in health programs like medical billing, coding, and assisting.
• Inflated Job Placement Claims: Salter advertised glowing employment stats that simply didn’t reflect reality. Many students couldn’t get jobs in their field after graduation.
• $1.6 Million Settlement: The college agreed to discharge over $1.6 million in student loan debt and cease enrolling students in Massachusetts.
• State Law Violations: Investigators found Salter failed to provide critical information about job outcomes, loan obligations, and graduation rates.

These violations are textbook examples of Borrower Defense triggers. If you attended Salter College and relied on their false promises, you likely qualify for federal loan forgiveness.

What Is Borrower Defense to Repayment?

Borrower Defense to Repayment (BDR) is a federal program that cancels student loans for borrowers who were misled or defrauded by their school. If Salter College lied about job placement rates or made false promises to you, you may be eligible for complete loan cancellation.

Qualifications:

• Attended Salter College
• Took out federal student loans
• Were misled about employment, accreditation, or program outcomes

Timeline:

• Applications are reviewed by the U.S. Department of Education
• Approvals can take months—but many Salter cases already have precedent
