†Not applicable.
1 Publicly controlled institutions are identified by a "1"; private not-for-profit, by a "2"; and private for-profit, by a "3."
2 Includes federal appropriations, unrestricted and restricted federal contracts and grants, and revenue for independent operations. Independent operations generally include only the revenues associated with major federally funded research and development centers. Federally supported student aid that is received through students is excluded. Data for public, private not-for-profit, and private for-profit institutions are only roughly comparable because they were collected using different survey instruments.
NOTE: Degree-granting institutions grant associate’s or higher degrees and participate in Title IV federal financial aid programs.
