American Enterprise Institute

The American Enterprise Institute appears in Can the Trump administration make college cheaper? through Preston Cooper, who discusses the Trump administration’s graduate Federal Student Loan Caps. In this source, AEI functions as the policy-research affiliation for an argument that loan caps can discipline high-priced graduate programs.

The institution’s role is narrow here: it is not profiled as a think tank generally, but as the context for Cooper’s claim that most graduate borrowers remain under the new caps and that the affected group is concentrated in expensive programs.
