— Not available. # Rounds to zero. 1 Data were imputed using alternative procedures. (See Guide to Sources for details.) 2 Included under restricted grants and contracts. 3 Excludes Pell Grants. Federally supported student aid that is received through students is included under tuition and auxiliary enterprises. 4 Generally includes only those revenues associated with major federally funded research and development centers (FFRDC). NOTE: Data through 1990–91 are for institutions of higher education, while later data are for degree-granting institutions. Degree-granting institutions grant associate's or higher degrees and participate in Title IV federal financial aid programs. The degree-granting classification is very similar to the earlier higher education classification, but it includes more 2-year colleges and excludes a few higher education institutions that did not grant degrees. (See Guide to Sources for details.) Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
