UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON as FEC employer text: $8.1 million

Contributors who listed UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON on federal itemized receipts account for $8,069,612, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. The cluster is 37,390 contributions from 943 donors. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON is a public-university name as typed, not a NAICS higher-education total, not the university’s endowment, and not a campus PAC. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY, and HARVARD UNIVERSITY are sibling school-name rows. Packet facts for this page are $8,069,612, 37,390 contributions, and 943 donors, with top employer UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. Unitemized gifts never appear in that total. LobbyVault indexes FEC.gov individual receipts, not the UW abbreviation and not NAICS colleges and universities.

Key figures

  • UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON as FEC employer text totals $8,069,612 from 943 donors.
  • 37,390 contribution lines sit under that public-university name.
  • UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA and COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY are separate FEC keys.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not a NAICS higher-education sector.

A Pacific Northwest campus name on Schedule A

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. Faculty, staff, medical-center affiliates, and others type UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON rather than UW, Harborview, or a college legal name. The $8,069,612 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not UW’s operating budget, not tuition, and not a NAICS 6113 rollup of all colleges.

People who typed UW, UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON MEDICAL CENTER, STATE OF WASHINGTON, TEACHER, or PROFESSOR without the university name sit in other rows. Alumni who list a later private employer are not in these 943 donors unless a receipt still carried UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.

943 donors and 37,390 lines

943 unique donors produced 37,390 UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON contribution lines totaling $8,069,612. That is on the order of 40 itemized receipts per donor. Line volume sits in the same paperwork neighborhood as other large public-university strings, still as a separate stored key. The packet does not publish a mean gift as its own FEC field.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and campus PAC filings are outside the $8,069,612 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 37,390 lines are expected.

UC, Columbia, and Harvard stay on their own pages

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY, HARVARD UNIVERSITY, and STANFORD UNIVERSITY are separate school-name keys. Combining them with UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON would invent a higher-education recode. This page stays at $8,069,612 for UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON only.

Occupation pages show titles stored beside the school — professor, physician, researcher, retired — as typed. TEACHER remains a generic-title row that may include K-12 staff who never named UW.

Donor table without grant inference

The UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach an NIH grant, a tuition policy, or a motive to that line. The FEC field is not a campus HR export.

Follow committees on the table for party and office. This guide does not assign a partisan percentage to the school name. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.
