Footnotes
- Historic statistics on students receiving loans is published by Student Loans Company in the Student Support for Higher Education in England publication: : https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/student-support-for-higher-education-in-england-2019
- Plan 2 loans were introduced in place of Plan 1 loans for new entrants to higher education from September 2012. Part-time higher education fee loans were introduced at the same time and part-time maintenance loans were introduced in August 2018.
- The outlay model only forecasts students as receiving loans up to six years after they entered higher education, therefore no Plan 1 outlay is forecast from academic year 2019/20 onwards. However, there are some exceptional cases where students may still be paid a Plan 1 loan later than this, e.g. if they had suspended their studies.
- Doctoral loans were introduced in August 2018.
- Coverage: Borrowers who received loans as English domiciled students studying in the UK or as EU domiciled students studying in England.
- Borrowers receiving both fee and maintenance loans for their course are included in both totals.
- Master's loans were introduced in August 2016.
- Figures have been rounded to the nearest 5,000 borrowers.
- Advanced Learner Loans were introduced for students aged 24+ on some further education courses in August 2013, and extended to students aged 19-23 in August 2016.
