NOTE: For years 1984-85 to 2001-02, reported racial/ethnic distributions of students by level of degree, field of degree, and sex were used to estimate race/ethnicity for students whose race/ethnicity was not reported. Data for 1998-99 were imputed using alternative procedures. (See Guide to Sources for details.) Detail may not sum to totals due to rounding.
