        <Explanation>Client Note 1 - William Carey CollegeForm 990, Schedule APart III#3aScholarships, grants, work study, and loan funds at William Carey University are administered in conjunction with a nationally established philosophy of distributing financial aid. The basis of this philosophy is the belief that the student and parents have the primary responsibility for paying the cost of education and that financial aid from the University is available only for meeting the difference between the cost of education and the amount the students and parents can reasonably be expected to contribute. A student's expected family contribution is determined by the Department of Education once a student has completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).</Explanation>
