NOTE: Total includes private 2-year and private for-profit 4-year institutions. 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 the figures appearing in some other tables. For details on the community types, see U. S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics. (2008). The Condition of Education 2008 (NCES 2008-031), supplemental note 1.
