Note: Figures are based on data from all Title IV-participating, degree-granting institutions in the United States that fell into the categories above. Only institutions that do not have an open-admissions policy for entering first-time students are included. Institutions with fewer than 100 applicants are excluded from rankings, but their numbers are included in totals. Categories are based on the 2018 Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education.
