GRADUATE STUDENT, COLLEGE STUDENT, and LAW STUDENT, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Student total. Do not stack sibling titles into a single Pennsylvania professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

STUDENT as a filer-entered occupation string

STUDENT is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a license, a campus, or an employer. The $142,935,090 national total is STUDENT only. 12,200 donors produced 226,355 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 226,355 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Pennsylvania (PA). This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state PA.

Pennsylvania on the state side

551 Pennsylvania donors produced 11,417 contributions totaling $4,328,585. Donor state PA is the address on the record, not proof of a Pennsylvania license, and not a limit to Pennsylvania candidates. PA is the address on the itemized record, not a map of which campaigns received the $4,328,585.

The Pennsylvania campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to PA. This join is only STUDENT. The Student occupation hub without Pennsylvania still holds about 97.0% of the $142,935,090. Pennsylvania’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to PA. STUDENT is only this filter.

What the join does not show

A 3.0% dollar share in Pennsylvania does not rank the state as more or less political than others. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards. The overlap is descriptive.

A complete claim names Student and Pennsylvania (PA), then $4,328,585, 11,417 contributions, 551 donors, and 3.0% of $142,935,090, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. Remainder outside Pennsylvania: $138,606,505.

Student donations and Pennsylvania campaign finance are the hub pages. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling joins. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $379 is $4,328,585 divided by 11,417 lines in this state cell. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The overlay and occupation hubs remain the places for one-sided totals. This tie page quotes packet facts only. Independent expenditures stay outside the cell. Filer-entered occupation strings are not payroll titles. Committee identifiers on the itemized line are the recipient keys used here. Readers who need a person-level roster will not find names on this page. USAspending.gov is a different ledger from FEC.gov individual contributions. All occupations and All FEC ties remain the indexes for sibling joins. Cite the source note exactly as copied from the packet. Do not convert a contribution count into a unique-person census. Do not treat a committee overlay as this occupation’s only destination. Dollar figures first, then the two keys that produced them. The canonical path is a ties URL, not a donor-detail URL. Unitemized gifts are outside the itemized aggregate quoted here. Cycle stacking can raise line counts without raising unique people. Nearby job titles belong on their own occupation hubs if stored as other strings. A mean gift is dollars divided by itemized lines, not a typical check. Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Keep the committee ID next to the committee name whenever the cell is quoted. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The overlay and occupation hubs remain the places for one-sided totals.
