One may wonder how this is related to education, but this “negative” outlook is directly caused by the anticipated affect that changes to the Department of Education’s guidelines regarding financial aid will hurt Kaplan, the Newspaper’s most profitable subsidiary.

Overall, new requirements that will curb how much in loan money student’s can take and how much University can charge for degree programs will begin to eat away at profits for many institutions, including for-profit schools such as Kaplan.

The question will be what will it do to schools, who are only getting by with their already high tuition costs?
