\1\These preliminary data represent the institution branches and enrollments reported in the "Fall Enrollment" survey.

\2\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.

\3\Data revised from previously published figures.
