Another factor to consider for debt between 2-year, 4-year degree holders

I wonder how similar the outcomes if the study controlled for financial aid dependency status (independent vs. dependent students). In other words, will holders of either degree have HIGHER rates of consumer and student loan debt if INDEPENDENT students previously? Will holders of either degree have HIGHER proportions of "house debt" if DEPENDENT students previously?
