3. These grants have been calculated by taking account of the model of a standard College with a basic requirement for endowment. The figures take account of the actual endowment requirements of the relevant Applicant College, having reference to numbers of undergraduates, full-time equivalent graduates, Fellows, and College Teaching Officers. The Committee continues to cap the grant to be made to any one College at 15% of the total available.
4. The Colleges Fund Committee has not approved any exceptional grants in addition to the endowment-based grants listed above.
