Abstract: The number and availability of service-contingent loan forgiveness and loan repayment programs have expanded considerably since the establishment of the first major federal loan forgiveness program under the National Defense Education Act of 1958.

Table 1 lists programs that were operational on or after October 1, 2021. Table 2 lists such programs that were previously operational prior to October 1, 2021; that were never active; or for which program information is unavailable. Both tables contain the following information: (1) program name; (2) statutory citation; (3) administering agency; (4) qualifying service required of program participants; (5) maximum amount of benefits program participants can receive; (6) most recently available data regarding the amount of funds appropriated for the program or the amount of benefits awarded under the program; and (7) resources for additional information.
