Student Loans: Default Rates at Historically Black Colleges and Universities

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on federally guaranteed student loans and loan defaults for students attending historically black colleges and universities (HBCU), focusing on: (1) the amount of Federal Family Education Loans (FFEL) made to HBCU students; (2) default rates and the amount of defaulted loans for HBCU; and (3) the number of HBCU in fiscal year 1994 that could lose their FFEL eligibility or be subject to a state review organization evaluation.
