McD paid $6.5 million in need based aide for the 2020-2021 academic year per their website. I would leave SPSG out of the discussion because McD is in a league of their own in terms of need based aide to students. One can only assume most of the McD aide is allocated for athletes because of their dominance in IAAM sports such as soccer, basketball and lacrosse. McD values Championships - so this is what they do..
