Hey, peoples!
Just dropping in to let you know of some news I received while working on choking off funding for HLA tuition...
My contact at TERI (a private loan agency for school tuition) has informed me that in addition to cutting off HLA, TERI has also decided to cut off Elan.
A tireless advocate inside the system who was tipped off to allegations of fraud/abuse/neglect, etc at HLA started investigating and found substantive evidence to support these allegations and was appalled at this industry's true nature and began looking into other facilities, including Elan.
Subsequently, TERI has removed Elan from its list of approved schools and no parents will be able to borrow money for Elan tuition. I'm not sure how this will affect Elan, but HLA reportedly was drawing somewhere around 25% of its tuition through TERI loans to parents - a major fucking hit to lose.
Look for both Elan and HLA to come off the approved list on the website within 90 days.
Let me know if you hear about the effects. I'd like to stay in the loop here...
