*Students may be served by more than one program. The totals reported for each aid program category 
include all students served by that program or programs. The grand total reported is an unduplicated 
count of all students served.

**The total student pool number for purposes of financial aid is the unduplicated headcount of 
admitted students -- full-time, part-time, undergraduates, and graduates -- enrolled for credit 
during the regular 1995-96 academic year (fall, winter, and spring terms).

***Beginning with the 1995-96 academic year, most OSSHE institutions participated in the new federal 
direct loan program.  In 1995-96, direct loans accounted for 85% of total federal loan activity.
