all businesses not just educational institutions should adopt and follow through with theses standards, companies would increase their business 10 fold.

I am glad loan counseling is now required. I don't ever remember getting counseling for my student loans. Most students coming out of high school I feel don't really understand taking out loans, repayments, interest rates, etc.

Many students, especially at career-focused institutions, have a primary goal to obtain "better" employment as an outcome for completing their educational program of study - with a fluctuating job market and high unemployment rates in certain geographic regions of the country has higher education institutions changed reporting on their job placement stats?

“The Gainful employment disclosure requirements state that Institutions are required to provide prospective students with the following information for each program offered: The typical costs for books and supplies (unless those costs are included as part of tuition and fees), and the cost of room and board, if applicable.” How is something like this measured since this cost for books and supplies varies from semester to semester or if a professor changes the text book because a newer addition is available, etc?
