So you expect private lenders to be on the hook for delinquencies and put them in charge of assessing credit risk, but then at the same time kneecap them by not allowing them to see any information about the lenders aside from what degree they're studying? Seems like a shitty regime where the smart middle class students (not rich students, because they don't need student loans) bears the burden of subsidizing all the bad students.
it would simply result in no one lending
