Eileen Connor, president and director of the Project on Predatory Student Lending, one of the groups representing borrowers in the lawsuit, lambasted the three institutions Tuesday for planning to appeal the settlement.

The settlement will take effect if an appeal isn’t filed by Jan. 17, according to the Project on Predatory Student Lending, a group that represented borrowers in the class-action lawsuit.

“Within one year of the effective date of the settlement agreement—currently, January 17, 2023— class members will have their outstanding loans relating to these schools fully discharged,” according to the Project on Predatory Student Lending, the organization representing the class of borrowers. Some borrowers may also receive refunds of past payments as well as credit repair.
