Executive Summary
This paper explores the features of Income Share Agreements (ISAs) as an alternative method of financing higher education. After reviewing a pilot project at Eastern Kentucky University and complaints that have been filed toward their provider, the insights gained lead to recommendations for a state-wide government-sponsored income share agreement program with specific guardrails regarding transparency, program goals and outcomes, legal requirements, compliance and auditing, and lending and servicing.
