Footnotes
- Figures have been rounded to the nearest 1,000 borrowers.
- Plan 5 loans will replace Plan 2 loans for new entrants to full-time and part-time undergraduate courses and new borrowers of Advanced Learner Loans from Academic Year 2023/24.
- Where you see the symbol 'z' this refers to not applicable.
- Borrowers receiving both fee and maintenance loans for their course are included in both totals.
- Coverage: Borrowers who received loans as English domiciled students studying in the UK or as EU domiciled students studying in England
- 2019 figures are provisional figures based on DfE analysis of SLC data.
- The outlay model only forecasts students as receiving loans up to six years after they entered higher education; therefore no Plan 1 outlay is forecasted in financial year 2021-22 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.
