understanding of the evolving roles of women.

Work experience (as admission factor): Special consideration given to students who have been employed

prior to application, whether for relevance to major, demonstration of employment-related skills, or as

explanation of student’s academic and extracurricular record.

Financial Aid Definitions

Awarded aid: The dollar amounts offered to financial aid applicants.

External scholarships and grants: Scholarships and grants received from outside (private) sources that

students bring with them (e.g., Kiwanis, National Merit scholarships). The institution may process paperwork

to receive the dollars, but it has no role in determining the recipient or the dollar amount awarded.

Financial aid applicant: Any applicant who submits any one of the institutionally required financial aid

applications/forms, such as the FAFSA.

Indebtedness: Aggregate dollar amount borrowed through any loan program (federal, state, subsidized,

unsubsidized, private, etc.; excluding parent loans) while the student was enrolled at an institution. Student

loans co-signed by a parent are assumed to be the responsibility of the student and should be included.

Institutional scholarships and grants: Endowed scholarships, annual gifts and tuition funded grants for

which the institution determines the recipient.

Financial need: As determined by your institution using the federal methodology and/or your institution's own

standards.

Need-based aid: College-funded or college-administered award from institutional, state, federal, or other

sources for which a student must have financial need to qualify. This includes both institutional and

noninstitutional student aid (grants, jobs, and loans).

Need-based scholarship or grant aid: Scholarships and grants from institutional, state, federal, or other

sources for which a student must have financial need to qualify.

Need-based self-help aid: Loans and jobs from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which a

student must demonstrate financial need to qualify.

Non-need-based scholarship or grant aid: Scholarships and grants, gifts, or merit-based aid from

institutional, state, federal, or other sources (including unrestricted funds or gifts and endowment income)

awarded solely on the basis of academic achievement, merit, or any other non-need-based reason. When

reporting questions H1 and H2, non-need-based aid that is used to meet need should be counted as need-

based aid.

Note: Suggested order of precedence for counting non-need money as need-based:
