Five factors indicated a strong relationship for the students who took loans – namely students who had been in school longer were less likely to take loans, students who had entered the college from another four-year college were also more likely to take loans, students from families with higher incomes were also less likely to take loans and students who were later in their family to go to college were also less likely to take a loan
