| 1Beginning in 1994, new procedures were used to collect enrollment data on children ages 3–4. As a result, pre-1994 data may not be comparable to data from 1994 or later. | |||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. Include enrollment in any type of graded public or parochial or other private schools and include nursery schools or preschools, kindergartens, elementary schools, secondary schools, colleges, universities, and professional schools. Excludes enrollments in schools that do not advance students toward a regular school degree (e.g., trade schools, business colleges, and correspondence courses). This table uses a different data source than table A-OPE-2; therefore, the enrollment estimates for 2010 are not directly comparable to the total enrollment estimates in table A-OPE-2.
