From the abstract:
"This paper examines the feasibility of various alternative student loan schemes for Ireland. Using data from a large employer survey, we model the life-cycle earnings distribution for Irish graduates. We then use these estimates to stimulate the effects of alternative types of student loans, including morgage loans and income-contingent loans of various designs, incorporating participation and migration patterns into the simulations."
