During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, the College issued new loans to students under the Federal Direct Student Loan Program (FDLP). The loan program includes subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford Loans, Parent PLUS Loans, and PLUS Loans for graduate and professional students. The value of loans issued for the FDLP is based on disbursed amounts. The loan amounts issued during the year are disclosed on the Schedule. The College is responsible only for the performance of certain administrative duties with respect to the federally guaranteed student loan programs and, accordingly, balances and transactions relating to these loan programs are not included in the College’s financial statements. Therefore, it is not practicable to determine the balance of loans outstanding to students and former students of the College at May 31, 2024.
