NOTE: Minority students includes Black, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander, and American Indian/Alaska Native students. Some institutions do not report separate enrollment data for each branch campus. For this reason, counts of institutions in this table are somewhat lower than figures appearing in other tables. Includes data for 4-year and 2-year degree-granting institutions that were participating in Title IV federal financial aid programs.
