Abstract

Evaluates the budget savings potential of options to reduce federal student loan program costs, especially denying certain students access to loans. Rationing that targets low-risk students (those who will likely attend schools that do not have a federal loan guarantee) has the greatest cost savings relative to social benefits forgone.
