How do nonprofit universities differ from public universities?
Nonprofit universities function independently, and are supported by private funding like tuition, donations, and endowments. They place a strong emphasis on their educational mission, as well as their students’ academic success— boasting an expansive array of resources, fostering innovation, and centering their efforts on delivering personalized education. Conversely, public universities rely on government funding, provide reduced tuition for in-state residents, and deliver accessible higher education as part of their public service mandate.
