#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 for 1980-81 to 1990-91 are for institutions of higher education. 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.) Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
