[WASHINGTON, D.C.] -- U.S. Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL), on the floor of the United States Senate today, discussed a new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report debunks the for-profit college industry's longtime excuse for poor student success rates at their schools: that they enroll students whose socioeconomic status and other characteristics make them "high-risk." Today's GAO report, which compares student success rates at for-profit, nonprofit, and public colleges, controlled for those characteristics and found that overall, for-profit college students still have lower success rates.
