Post Secondary Students and Dependents

Question
We are looking for an "education survey" which provides the following information:

1. students with dependents while they are studying

2. source of financing for tuition or at least loan or no loan.

Answer
The National Graduates Survey (http://www.statcan.gc.ca/dli-ild/data-donnees/ftp/ngs-end-eng.htm) covers both of these topics.

Here are a few of the variables I identified by browsing the codebook for the Follow-up of Graduates Survey; Class of 2000 PUMF (http://www.statcan.gc.ca/dli-ild/data-donnees/ftp/ngs-end/fog-sad2000-eng.htm).
There are additional similar variables in the codebook.

Variable Name: FDEQ02P Position: 229 Length: 1
Do you have any dependent children? (Note: This variable doesn't seem to specify "while they were studying" however.)

Variable Name: SL_Q01A Position: 100 Length: 1
What were your two main sources of funding for all of your post-secondary education...? Parents
