- Graduate students are not eligible to receive PLUS loans.

1 Total borrowers column may not equal totals provided in other tables. This column represents the sum of each distinct academic level reported for the borrower during the fiscal year. Since borrowers can change academic level over the fiscal year and they may change this at different rates than other characteristics, the total borrower counts in tables that describe other characteristics will naturally be different.

NOTES: Volume measure is Direct Loan commitments. Details may not add to totals due to rounding. Calculations are based on numbers before rounding. Data for earlier years appear in table A-13 in appendix I.
