#Rounds to 0.

\1\Details on nonfederal work study participants are not available.
\2\Includes students who reported they were awarded aid, but did not specify the source of aid.

NOTE: Excludes students whose attendance status was not reported. Because of rounding and the fact that some students receive multiple types and sources of aid, details may not add to totals. Standard errors appear in parentheses.
