\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.
\2\Includes students who reported they were awarded aid, but did not specify the source of aid.
\3\Includes students who received teaching or research assistantships and/or participated in work-study programs.
\4\Stafford loans, formerly Guaranteed Student Loans (GSL).
\5\Fellowship estimates for 1992-93 and 1995-96 were based primarily on information provided by institutions, and are not comparable to data for 1999-2000, which were based on information provided by both students and institutions.

NOTE: Excludes students whose attendance status was not reported. Total includes some students whose level of study was unknown. Because of rounding and the fact that some students receive aid from multiple sources, details do not add to totals. Standard errors appear in parentheses.
