Answer:
Jancm -- The place to find education statistics is the National Center for Education Statistics, which collects information on K-12 and higher education. The best single report is the Digest of Education Statistics for 2001. The most-recent report was released in the Spring of 2002. The information that you seek is in Table 215: NCES "Digest of Education Statistics, 2001" -- Chapter 3. Postsecondary Education (March 1, 2002) http://nces.ed.gov/pubs2002/digest2001/tables/dt215.asp This report includes 3,958 institutions of higher education, about half of which are 2-year and half are 4-year institutions. It lists the number of institutions and the total enrollment for these categories: * under 200 * 200-499 * 500-999 * 1,000-2,499 * 2,500-4,999 * 5,000-9,999 * 10,000-19,999 * 20,000-29,999 * 30,000 or more Google search strategy: I actually consulted an almanac first to see what the best data sources were for higher education, then used the following Google search: NCES + "higher education" Best regards, Omnivorous-GA
