funded debt

Read a random definition: OTS

A quick definition of funded debt:

Funded debt is money that someone owes and has agreed to pay back. It can be a debt owed to a person, entity, or government. Funded debt can be secured by collateral or backed by the full faith and credit of the debtor. It can be short-term or long-term, and can be paid off through future taxation or an accumulation of money.

A more thorough explanation:

Funded debt is a type of debt that is secured by a bond or debenture and is meant to replace short-term, floating, or unsecured debt. It can also refer to a state or municipal debt that will be paid out of an accumulation of money or by future taxation.

  • A company issues bonds to raise money for a new project. The bonds are secured by the company's assets and are considered funded debt.
  • A city issues municipal bonds to finance a new stadium. The bonds will be paid back over a period of years and are considered funded debt.

These examples illustrate how funded debt is a long-term debt that is secured by a bond or debenture and is meant to replace short-term, floating, or unsecured debt. It is a way for companies and governments to raise money for large projects or expenses that they cannot pay for upfront.

All I know is tons of schools had "waves" first week of december last year, like dec 8ish lol I had hoped the human side with thanksgiving's date this year would make them do a wave this week before, like imagine the emotional tie for someone that could get hys getting their duke A this week and celebrating with family, maybe they come to duke now when before it was a no. But the good money bet is that dec 8-17 is when the waves come

I'd only check a status checker to make sure my application is complete. Anything else is just asking for an anxiety attack. Schools will contact us when they have a decision ready.

yeah I just submitted about 10 applications and submitting several more the next few days so I thought it would be easier to track them to make sure they all went complete
