Table 7.
Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program number of borrowers and dollar amount of Stafford Subsidized loans, by type of institution: FY 1990-FY 2000

This table shows the number and percent of total FFEL program Stafford Subsidized loan program commitments (numbers of borrowers and dollar amounts), by type of institution (public 2- and 4-year, private 2- and 4-year, proprietary, and foreign).

Since FY 1997, the proportion of Stafford Subsidized borrowers from public 4-year institutions is similar to the proportion from private 4-year institutions-approximately 36 percent annually. In contrast, borrowers from private 4-year institutions consistently borrowed a greater proportion of Stafford Subsidized dollars during this time than borrowers from public 4-year institutions-approximately 43 percent vs. approximately 37 percent, respectively.

From FY 1994-FY 2000, the percent of Stafford Subsidized dollars committed to borrowers at public 4-year institutions decreased from 45.5 to 36.5 percent. The percent of Stafford Subsidized dollars committed to borrowers from private 4-year institutions grew from 37.4 percent in FY 1994 to a high of 43.9 percent in FY 1998. But in FY 1999 and FY 2000 this proportion dropped to 43.1 and 42.9 percent, respectively.

From FY 1993 to FY 1998, the percent of Stafford Subsidized dollars committed to borrowers at both public and private 4-year institutions held steady at about 82 percent annually. This figure fell to 79.4 percent in FY 2000.

From FY 1990 to FY 1997, the percent of Stafford Subsidized dollars committed to borrowers at proprietary institutions fell from 21.6 percent to 9.5 percent. This figure began increasing again in FY 1998 (9.9 percent) and, in FY 2000, the percent committed to borrowers at proprietary institutions stood at 12.6 percent.

From FY 1990 to FY 2000, the percent of Stafford Subsidized dollars committed to borrowers at public and private 2-year institutions held fairly steady, with approximately 6 to 7 percent going to borrowers from public 2-year institutions and one to two percent going to borrowers from private 2-year institutions.

From FY 1990 to FY 2000, the proportion of Stafford Subsidized borrowers at proprietary institutions was consistently lower than the proportion of Stafford Subsidized dollars they received. For instance, in FY 1990, 27.0 percent of Stafford Subsidized borrowers were from proprietary schools, while only 21.6 percent of the Stafford Subsidized dollars were committed to them. In FY 2000, 16.2 percent of the borrowers were from proprietary schools, but only 12.6 percent of dollars were committed to them.

Borrowers attending foreign institutions represent a very small percentage of loan volume. For example, between FY 1997 and FY 2000, borrowers at foreign institutions accounted for less than 0.5 percent of Stafford Subsidized borrowers and approximately 1 percent of these dollars.

NOTES: Starting with FY97, borrowers attending foreign institutions are shown separately. Prior to that year, these borrowers were included in other reported figures. Details may not add to totals due to rounding. Calculations are based on numbers before rounding. The loan volume reported in this table includes some loans that later may be canceled. Data for earlier years appear in table A-7 in appendix I. SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education, National Student Loan Data System.
