---Not available.
\1\Tuition and fees received from veterans under Public Law 550 are reported under student fees and are not under income from the federal government.
\2\Federally supported student aid that is received through students is included under tuition and auxiliary enterprises.
\3\Includes federal aid received through state channels and regional compacts, through 1959-60.
\4\Beginning in 1969-70, the private grants represent nongovernmental revenue for sponsored research, student aid, and other sponsored programs.
\5\Prior to 1959-60, data for hospitals are included under sales and services of educational activities.
\6\Institutions that were accredited by an agency or association that was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, or recognized directly by the Secretary of Education.
\7\Income from state and local governments tabulated under "State governments."
\8\Data are for 4-year and 2-year degree-granting institutions that were participating in Title IV federal financial aid programs.

NOTE: Institutions of higher education were accredited by an agency or association that was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, or recognized directly by the Secretary of Education. The new degree-granting classification is very similar to the earlier higher education classification, except that it includes some additional institutions, primarily 2-year colleges, and excludes a few higher education institutions that did not award associate's or higher degrees. (See Guide to Sources for details.) Data for years prior to 1969-70 are not entirely comparable with data for later years. Also, some details for 1969-70 are not directly comparable with data for later years. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
