School Fact Sheets provide information about Texas colleges, lenders
Round Rock, Texas — The latest edition of TG's School Fact Sheets is now available. The publication includes pertinent information about Texas educational institutions, including two- and four-year public and private institutions and proprietary schools, providing key data about the schools, the lenders they work with, and the students they serve — including demographics, typical federal student loan debt loads, and cohort default rates.
The School Fact Sheets are available in both an interactive html version and a printer-ready PDF format. The html version provides a list of every TG lender providing Federal Family Education Loan Program student loans at a given school with helpful links to the lender's Lender Fact Sheet. These lender lists within the School Fact Sheets report fiscal year to date loan volume at a particular school and are updated monthly.
"We're very pleased to offer this information to help the higher education and lending communities," said Jeff Webster, TG assistant vice president for research and analytical services. "The feedback we receive consistently indicates that schools, lenders, legislators, and others find the information relevant and useful in helping them understand the costs of higher education in Texas."
The School Fact Sheets include data from TG, the Department of Education, Department of Agriculture, Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, the Independent Colleges and Universities of Texas, Texas Legislative Council, and various other sources.
The School Fact Sheets can be found at www.tgslc.org by going to "For Schools" and selecting "School Fact Sheets" under the "Information Resources" category. Printed copies of the four-volume School Fact Sheets will be available in mid-May.
