  • The US College Loans System Lessons from Australia and England
    Economics of Education Review xxx (xxxx) xxx–xxx Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Economics of Education Review journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/econedurev The US college loans system: Lessons from Australia and England ⁎ Nicholas Barra, Bruce Chapmanb, Lorraine Deardenc, , Susan Dynarskid a London School of Economics and Political Science, United Kingdom b Australian National University, Australia c University College London, Institute for Fiscal Studies and IZA, United Kingdom d University of Michigan and NBER, USA ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT JEL classification: There is wide agreement that the US student loan system faces significant problems. Seven million borrowers are H28 in default and many more are not repaying for reasons such as returning to school, or economic hardship. The I22 stress of repayments faced by many students results at least in part from the design of US student loans. I28 Specifically, loans are organised like a mortgage, with fixed monthly repayments over a fixed periodoftime, J24 creating a high repayment burden on borrowers with low income. This paper draws on the experience of the Keywords: income-contingent loan (ICL) systems operating in England and Australia, in which monthly or two-weekly Income-contingent loans repayments are related to the borrower's income in that period, thus building in automatic insurance against Mortgage-type loans inability to repay during periods of low income. We discuss the design of this type of loan in detail since such an Student loan design exercise seems to be largely absent in the US literature. Drawing on data from the US Current Population Survey Loan defaults (CPS) we provide two main empirical contributions: a stylised illustration of the revenue and distributional implications of different hypothetical ICL arrangements for the USA; and an illustration of repayment problems faced by low-earning borrowers in the US loan system, including a plausible example of adverse outcomes with respect to Stafford loans.

One is lower data quality in the early years of the data: crucial information is sometimes missing or inconsistent across years. As far as charac­ teristics ought to be constant across years, we have dealt with missing data by taking the earliest record as authoritative.1 In cases where information on subject studied was missing, we have filled in missing data from earlier years on the same course of study.2 We also harmonised the birth year of each individual, taking data from undergraduate degrees as the most authoritative for cohorts for which no NPD data are available.3 A second challenge is changing variable definitions over time. The most important example of this for our purposes is a radical change in the way HESA classifies courses that occurred between the 2006/07 and 2007/08 academic years.4 As far as possible, we have attempted to follow HESA’s own coarser classification of degrees that includes a category for first degrees.5 However, we have diverged slightly from this classification in the interest of continuity with the pre-2007/08 classification scheme. As a result, we classify the following course codes as ‘undergraduate degrees’ for our pur­ poses: • the courseaim codes 18 to 24 • the qualaim codes H00, H11, H12, H16, H18, H22, H23, H24, H50, I00, I11, I16.
