NOTE: Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Prior to 2010, institutions were not required to report separate data on Asians, Pacific Islanders, and students of Two or more races. Projections for Asian, Pacific Islander, and Two or more races enrollment are not available due to the limited amount of historical data available upon which to base a projections model. Degree-granting institutions grant associate‘s or higher degrees and participate in Title IV federal financial aid programs. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. Some data have been revised from previously published figures.
