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 students who received teaching or research assistantships and/or participated in work-study programs.

4 Stafford loans, formerly Graduate Student Loans (GSL).

5 Supplementary Loans for Students.

6 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.

NOTE.--Excludes students whose attendance status was not reported. Because some students receive aid from multiple sources, percents do not add to totals.
