For the fourth consecutive year, Harvard received more voluntary contributions last year than any other college or university in the country. The University pulled in just more than $125 million in charitable gifts during the 1983-84 fiscal year out of $5.6 billion in gifts to higher education nationwide. Contributions to Harvard this year were the third highest in the University's history, coming at the conclusion of the five-year, $350 million Harvard Campaign, which ended in December.

Stanford University ranked second last year, with $111 million in gifts. Yale was third with $75 million.
