\1\Large increases are due to the addition of schools accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and
Colleges of Technology in 1980 and 1981.
\2\Because of imputation techniques, data are not consistent with figures for other years. \3\Revised from previously published data. \4\Preliminary data. NOTE.--Because of a revision in data compilation procedures, figures for 1986 and later years are not directly comparable with data for earlier years.
