Also excluded are the Nursing Loan Program ($267,450 during 1999-2000), a variety of grants and scholarships from fraternal organizations and clubs ($3,800,000 during 1999-2000), and loans processed by the Financial Aid Office ($82,004,000 during 1999-2000) for undergraduate students, graduate students, or their parents.
