Footnotes

  1. Figures have been rounded to the closest 1,000 students so may not sum to totals.
  2. Although 2019/20 entrants are outturn, 2019/20 loan-eligible entrants are partially forecast based on historic proportions of entrants eligible for tuition fee loans.
  3. Coverage: Full-time undergraduate England-domiciled entrants to UK providers and EU-domiciled entrants to providers in England. Included provider types are specifically: higher education institutions (HEIs) and designated alternative providers (APs) registered with the Office for Students (OfS) as an Approved (fee cap) provider; HEIs in the devolved administrations. Excluded provider types in England include further education colleges (FECs) and former non-designated APs registered as Approved (fee cap), as well as Approved providers. Excluded provider types in the devolved administrations include FECs and APs.
  4. Since 2017/18, nursing, midwifery and allied health profession (AHP) entrants have been part of the main student support system, making them eligible to receive tuition fee loans.
  5. Fee loan-eligible entrants are a subset of those student entrants eligible for tuition fee loans from Student Finance England.
