Loan awards count each loan type a student holds, not unique borrowers; one student may carry several (e.g. subsidized and unsubsidized), so the per-type figures are the reliable detail.

The share of student borrowers who default on federal loans within three years, against the national benchmark.
Of 390 borrowers who entered repayment, 29 (7.4%) defaulted within three years — above the 2.3% national rate.
