‡ Did not meet reporting standard.
# Rounds to zero.
\1\Includes students who reported they were awarded aid, but did not specify the source of aid.

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