imputed using alternative methods. ( See Guide to Sources for details.)

NOTE: Trend tabulations of institutions of higher education data are based on 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. The Department of Education no longer distinguishes between those institutions and other institutions that participated in Title IV programs. 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 degrees.

1 Religious affiliation as reported by institution.

2 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.

3 Data are for 4   year and 2   year degree granting institutions that participated in Title IV federal financial aid programs

4 Because data are derived from the `` Fall Enrollment'' survey, counts of institutions may differ from counts in other tables.

5 Data revised from previously published figures.

6 Included under `` Other public.'' NOTE: Trend tabulations of institutions of higher education data are based on institutions that were accredited by an agency or association that was recognized directly by the U. S. Department of Education, or recognized directly by the Secretary of Education. The Department of Education no longer distinguishes between those institutions and other institutions that participated in Title IV programs. 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 degrees. Data for 1999 imputed using alternative methods.

( See Guide to Sources for details.)

NOTE: Trend tabulations of institutions of higher education data are based on 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. The Department of Education no longer distinguishes between those institutions and other institutions that participated in Title IV programs. 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 or higher degrees. Alaska and Hawaii are included in all years. Detail may not sum to totals due to rounding.

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 or higher degrees. Data for 1998 revised from previously published figures Data for 1999 imputed using alternative methods. ( See Guide to Sources for details

Trend tabulations of institutions of higher education data are based on 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. 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 or higher degrees. Data for 1999 imputed using alternative methods. ( See Guide to Sources for details.)
