grants, Jesuit Reduction, Alumni Association Scholarships, and endowed monies for scholarships.

State scholarship funds to students from Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire; Gilbert Grants;
and Herter Scholarships.

These loan funds (formerly called “National Direct Student Loans”) are obtained by federal government contributions, Boston College contributions,
and collections of previous loans awarded.

This is a duplicated total since some students receive more than one type of aid.
*Important Note: The above data do not include Boston College student assistance for graduate and professional students (approximately $17.84 million in tuition remission, grants, or scholarships and $13.35 million in stipends during 2001-2002) administered
by the various schools and departments. Also excluded are the Nursing Loan Program ($164,100 during 2001-2002), a variety of
grants and scholarships from fraternal organizations and clubs ($4,992,877 during 2001-2002), and loans processed by Student
Financial Services ($77,030,407 during 2001-2002) for undergraduate students, graduate students, or their parents.
