Base Model Sample Clauses

Base Model. Consider a university that makes an offer of admission to a prospective student. The offer of admission also includes a fee contract that must be signed by the student at the time of accepting the offer of admission. In our base model, we consider two separate types of fee contracts a university might offer to the student: a conventional upfront-fee contract and an ISA contract. In the case of an upfront-fee contract, the university simply sets a price p for university education. The student must pay the entire amount p at the time of admission. In the alternative ISA contract, there is no upfront-payment requirement. The student does not pay anything until completing her university education. However, at the time of admission, the student must agree to pay a fraction ρ of her after-graduation income y. The fraction ρ is the university’s stake in student’s future income. The student’s income y is either 1, which represents that the student is successful, or zero, which represents that the student is not successful, on the job market. The student has no past savings at the time of university admission. The student decides whether to accept the university’s offer of admission. We assume the student’s outside option is zero. If the university offers an upfront-fee contract, accepting the contract requires the student to finance her education by obtaining funds from a competitive debt market. In this case, the student borrows an amount p and pays her university fee. For simplicity, we assume the competitive debt market offers funds at an interest rate of zero. The student agrees to fully repay her debt at the end of her university education. If the student fails to repay her debt at the time it is due, she incurs an additional disutility δ for every unit of borrowed funds. This disutility δ captures the effect of debt refinance or cost associated with insolvency and we refer to it as the level of student’s financial difficulty. In markets where debt refinancing is readily available or where government may offer debt-forgiveness programs to students, we can expect the level of student’s financial difficulty δ to be relatively small.
