• Private — for Profit
Public colleges are funded by the government, while private schools rely more on tuition and endowments. Private schools, although often costlier, may offer generous financial aid. Public universities generally have a wider selection of program offerings. For-profit colleges focus mostly on earning revenue through tuition and fees paid by students and channel that revenue into non-education expenses or directly to investors.

Notes
1. To estimate the STEM baccalaureate degrees, we selected and totaled the number of degrees both total and Indigenous in the over-500 CIP codes that are identified as STEM (Homeland Security-STEM-CIP web-2020). This is the latest data available from IPEDS; no other analysis had been done since 2008. The % STEM is shown here for all baccalaureate graduates; the % STEM Indigenous baccalaureate degrees is shown in the “Indigenous Students” section.
