Andres,

Thanks for sharing your opinion with the forum. To give everyone else an idea regarding the Obama college rating system I have posted the basic points below.

A Better Bargain for the Middle Class: Making College More Affordable

*Paying for Performance

*Tie financial aid to college performance, starting with publishing new college ratings before the 2015 school year.

*Challenge states to fund public colleges based on performance.

*Hold students and colleges receiving student aid responsible for making progress toward a degree.

*Promoting Innovation and Competition

*Challenge colleges to offer students a greater range of affordable, high-quality options than they do today.

*Give consumers clear, transparent information on college performance to help them make the decisions that work best for them.

*Encourage innovation by stripping away unnecessary regulations.

*Ensuring that Student Debt Remains Affordable

*Help ensure borrowers can afford their federal student loan debt by allowing all borrowers to cap their payments at 10 percent of their monthly income.

*Reach out to struggling borrowers to ensure that they are aware of the flexible options available to help them to repay their debt.
