In response to requests for more accurate and complete information about financial aid for college students, the 'Division of Higher Education, Office of Education, undertook its Student Assistance Project for the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information about institutional student financial aid. The present bulletin is the third in a planned series of 5 publications of the project. It is concerned with the several forms of institutional financial aid, such as fellowships, loans, and employment for graduate students in the academic year 1955-56. This bulletin is the result of several conferences and many discussions between staff members of the Office of Education and interested groups. The project has had, from its inception, the valuable counsel of a national advisory committee who helped to formulate the original questionnaire and who made many suggestions for the directory. This directory is based upon data assembled by questionnaires sent during May 1956 to 1,855 institutions of higher education listed in the "Education Directory Part 3, Higher Education." The student aid data sought included graduate fellowships, loans, and employment for the academic year 1955-56. An index is included. [Best copy available has been provided.].
