School Profile: Williams College

Information is limited to data collected by the Department of Education on the borrowers of federal student loans.

Schools may not report certain information if it doesn't apply to the school or its release would pose a privacy risk to students.

The following information is not available for Williams College:

• Standardized test scores.
• Federal loan default rates.
• Information about parents with federal PLUS Loans.

Since 13% of Williams College students receive federal student aid, the available data on cost, debt levels, starting salaries, and default rates come from approximately 277 of 2,129 total students per class (most data is averaged over a number of years).

Further, average debt levels exclude any non-federal student debt such as loans borrowed from banks, credit unions or other lenders. Since most students exhaust federal loan options before turning to other loans, figures approaching ~$30,000 for the "Student Federal Loan Debt" metric may indicate that students borrow additional loans.

This tool provides a valuable starting point for comparing schools. Consider contacting a school's financial aid office for information not reported to the Department of Education.
