  1. Master's loans were introduced in August 2016.
  2. Doctoral loans were introduced in August 2018.
  3. 2018-19 and 2019-20 transfer proportions have been provided from the previous release in September 2020. Since this time, there have been revisions to the data, economic assumptions, policies and modelling methodology used within the student finance forecasting models. This should be considered when comparing the 2018-19 and 2019-20 figures to the remaining forecasts.
