Description:
This report presents a comprehensive set of tables about the debt of recent college graduates for three
cohorts of bachelor’s degree recipients spanning a 15-year period. Tables feature statistics on loan
repayment, further educational pursuits, and employment status of first-time bachelor’s degree
recipients who graduated in 1992–93, 1999–2000, and 2007–08. Borrowing and debt detail includes the
percentage of college graduates who borrowed, the cumulative amount borrowed to obtain a bachelor’s
degree, repayment status after 1 year, average amounts owed, average monthly payments, and debt burden
for all three cohorts. Tables also present information about subsequent enrollment in post-bachelor’s
education, participation in the labor market, including K-12 teaching, and annual salary. Lastly,
tables present graduates’ debt status relative to their living arrangements, (with parents, own or rent
residence), family formation, and whether borrowers had a spouse also repaying loans. All tables are
broken out by key demographic, enrollment, and employment characteristics.
