\1\Numbers of postbaccalaureate students may not equal figures reported in other tables, since these data are based on a sample survey of all postbaccalaureate students. Includes students who enrolled at any time during the academic year.

\2\Includes students who reported they were awarded aid but did not specify the source of aid.

\3\Includes aid provided by corporations, unions, foundations, fraternal organizations, community organizations, etc.

\4\Full-time students are students who attend full-time for the entire academic year. All other students, including those who attend full-time for part of the academic year, are counted as part-time students.

---Sample size too small to permit reliable estimate.

NOTE.--Excludes students whose attendance status was not reported. Total includes some students whose level of study was unknown. Because some students receive aid from multiple sources and rounding, percents do not add to totals.
