Wilberforce University Surprises Graduates With Forgiveness of Student Debt

Emotions ranged from silent shock to exuberant screaming when the president of Wilberforce University announced all student debt was canceled for the Class of 2020 and the Class of 2021! That means all student fees, fines, or tuition balances due directly to the school have been wiped clean. Federal student loans or bank loans are not included in this debt forgiveness. The amount of debt cleared in this act of generosity totaled more than $375,000.
