Procedure for Monitoring Grants Outside the U.S.:	Schedule F, Part I, Line 2: Grants or other assistance are awarded to foreign organizations or entities pursuant to the University policies and procedures for all grant subawards. Such subawards are monitored through the University's Office for Sponsored Research (OSR) and the University's Office of Accounting Services for Research and Sponsored Programs (ASRSP). All subaward documentation including purchase orders, related charges and invoices are reviewed and monitored by ASRSP and confirmed with the principal investigator. The principal investigator must certify that the subaward costs are in accordance with OMB A-21 cost principles; also, ASRSP requests and collects audit reports from subaward recipients to monitor compliance. If the information is not furnished to ASRSP, payment may be withheld. Grants given to support charitable organizations are extended for charitable purposes to organizations that are exempt under Code Section 501(c)(3). After qualifications for the grant are met and the grant is disbursed to the charitable organization there is no subsequent monitoring by the University. Grants and other assistance are awarded to students on the basis of financial need following University policies developed to meet regulatory requirements (federal methodology) and guided by the College Board (institutional methodology). Merit scholarships are awarded based upon talent (eg, academic, music, and athletic). All of these awarded grants are allowed to be used by the students towards any type of costs; no subsequent monitoring is required.
Other Information	Schedule F, Part I: The program services listed in Part I reflect international educational programs in which the University had material involvement in the design, development and/or control of the program and/or curriculum. While Northwestern University provides its students with access to a multitude of study abroad programs and exchanges located throughout the world, the University does not administer or operate the educational courses taught by all of these programs. Rather, under reciprocity and affiliation agreements, the University helps facilitate its student access to such international programs and recognizes credit earned by students at such foreign educational institutions, and such exchange programs are excluded from Schedule F, Part I. Under Northwestern University's current accounting procedures, all expenses associated with study abroad international programs are not separately tracked, and therefore some expenditures per program are not listed in Part I, column (f) of Schedule F. Schedule F, Part I, column(f), line 3: Expenditures reported in the Form 990, Schedule F, Part I are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. University activities are assigned a unique identifying number. Direct expenses are recorded with respect to each activity in the University's electronic financial recording system. Such direct expenses, for the relevant tax year, are reflected in column (f). Schedule F, Part II, line 1: In connection with the monitoring of subawards through OSR, approved purchase orders and invoices are documented and accounted for in the University's electronic financial recording system, and such amounts are reflected in Part II, line 1. Schedule F, Part II, line 3: Foreign recipient organizations are universities, colleges, or hospitals. Schedule F, Part III, method used to report cash grants and column (c): Cash grants given to individuals are recorded in an electronic reporting tool. The data recorded includes information as to participation by undergraduate students in study abroad programming. Individual recipients of cash grants are coded with unique identifying numbers. Grants associated with undergraduate students coded as participating in a study abroad are reviewed to assess whether there is an overlap between the grant disbursement date and the dates of the applicable study abroad program. Similarly, grants disbursed to certain professional graduate students are reviewed to assess overlap with participation in international programming. The number of such students, based on their unique identifying numbers, are summed and reflected in Part III, column (c).	Schedule F, Part V

Part I, column (c)	Bond issues; CUSIP #	The following bond issuances are associated with additional CUSIP numbers as noted: (B) IFA-Series 2004 CUSIP #45200BFD5; (D) IFA-Series 2008 CUSIP #45200FLA5, and #45200FLB3.
Part III, line 3c	Private Business Use	The University engages bond counsel and performs a review of management or services contracts and research agreements at the time of any new bond issuances, generally every two years. At that time, all existing bond issuances and private use are re-examined and re-documented. The University monitors private use changes internally on an ongoing basis.
Part IV, line 3	Arbitrage; name of provider and term of hedge	Hedge providers and terms of hedges for bonds (B) IFA-Series 2004 and (D) IFA-Series 2008 are as follows: Morgan Stanley Capital Services, 4 and 24 years; Bank of America, 4 and 24 years; JP Morgan, 4 and 24 years.
Part II, line 9	Bond (A) Form 8038	Bond (A) IEFA-Series 2003 bond proceeds were used in part to refund 1993 bonds on December 1, 2003, and therefore represent a current refunding of the 1993 bonds. Form 8038 line 27 states that it is a current refunding; however, there is a typographical error on line 35 indicating a final 1993 bond call date of December 1, 2013. The correct date is December 1, 2003; the issuer filed an amended Form 8038 in November, 2011,to correct this error.
Part II, line 9	Bond (C) Form 8038	Bond (C) IFA-Series 2006 bonds were issued to refund bonds issued December 3, 1997. Form 8038 incorrectly identified the costs of issuance on line 30 as non-refunding proceeds of the issue; these proceeds should be reflected on line 24. There were no non-refunding proceeds of the 2006 issue; the issuer filed an amended Form 8038 in November, 2011, to correct this error.
Part III, line 4	Funding sources and private usage	The University finances acquisition, construction, or renovation of University facilities with multiple funding sources including tax exempt bond issues. There is a small amount of monitored private use within the facilities partially financed by bonds, however such usage was financed from other sources.
Part IV, line 5	Gross proceeds investment period	As disclosed on the Form 8038-T filed November 2009 for Bond (B) IFA-Series 2006, gross proceeds were invested beyond an available temporary period and the University calculated and made a yield reduction payment in the amount of $310,118.
Part II, line 3	Issue price and proceeds of Bonds (A), (B), (D)	The difference between issue price and proceeds of Bonds (A), (B), and (D) are due to investment income earned on unspent proceeds of IEFA-Series 2003, IFA-Series 2004 and IFA-Series 2006 bonds, respectively.

IdentifierIdentifier	Return ReferenceReturnReference	ExplanationExplanation
Identification of Related Tax-Exempt Organizations	Schedule R, Part II	Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation is included as a "related organization" because under its current bylaws, its clinical department chairs comprise a majority of its directors. These individuals are also employed as chairs of the corresponding academic departments within the Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University. However, the two organizations do not stand in the roles of parent and subsidiary. They are separate legal entities, and Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation is not subject to control by Northwestern University or vice-versa.
Charitable Remainder Trusts	Schedule R, Part IV	The Charitable Remainder Unitrusts and Charitable Remainder Annuity Trusts are predominantly domiciled in Illinois.
