853 awards is a thinner student-aid book than Pennsylvania’s or Ohio’s 84.063 cells at nearby dollar scales, which means a higher mean per record. That is a reporting pattern, not a ranking of states. Pell often posts as many institution-level instruments rather than one statewide line. The join does not name colleges, list students, or count FAFSA filers. Packet facts stop at $3,398,881,468.18, 853 awards, NJ, and 84.063.

84.063 is not Title I or Direct Loans

Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies (CFDA 84.010) and Federal Direct Student Loans are different Education catalogs. Mixing those dollars into $3,398,881,468.18 would invent a broader education total than this cell contains. Facts available: New Jersey, CFDA 84.063, $3,398,881,468.18, 853 awards. Expected Family Contribution flags and campus lists are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Federal Pell Grant Program, not a ranking of campus need. Dividing $3,398,881,468.18 by 853 yields about $3,984,621 per award—a record-level ratio, not a typical student Pell award. Unique recipients are unpublished. 853 is not a count of students.
