School Fact Sheet Time in Texas

Ah, springtime in Texas! For some, spring means straining one's eyes for that first glimpse of bluebonnets along the roadside. Others enjoy their first dip in a favorite swimming hole. But alert student aid professionals mark the transition in seasons by the arrival of the updated School Fact Sheets.

This trusty reference puts information at the fingertips of students, student loan officers, financial aid administrators, legislative staff, government officials, and the news media. With data gleaned from Texas Guaranteed's (TG's) databases, state agencies, and the federal government, the School Fact Sheets present information about Texas colleges and universities in a handy, compact book. The reader will find statistics about student aid, college costs, enrollment, cohort default rates, loan volume trends, and the lenders providing loans to students at each college.

Printed copies of the 2000 School Fact Sheets will be mailed to TG's business partners by the end of March. You can soon access online versions of the updated School Fact Sheets before the printed versions arrive on your desks. To navigate to the online School Fact Sheets, begin at TG Online (www.tgslc.org) and click on "Publications." The online School Fact Sheets offer a print-friendly option (PDF) and a web-friendly version (HTML). The HTML School Fact Sheets include a complete list of lenders doing business at a school (as opposed to just the top ten found in the PDF option). This extended lender list is updated on a monthly basis.
