The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 identified and defined Alaskan Native-serving institutions, and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions under the following language:

An Alaskan Native-serving institution [Part A of Title III (20 U.S.C. ?1057 et seq.) amended by Section 317(b)(2) of the Higher Education Amendments of 1998] is an institution of higher education which (A) is an eligible institution under section 312(b); and (B) at the time of application, has an enrollment of undergraduate students that is at least 20% Alaskan Native students.

A Native Hawaiian-serving institutions [Part A of Title III (20 U.S.C. ?1057 et seq.) amended by Section 317(b)(4) of the Higher Education Amendments of 1998] is an institution of higher education which (A) is an eligible institution under section 312(b); and (B) at the time of application, has an enrollment of undergraduate students that is at least 10% Native Hawaiian students.

At this time, racial and ethnic information collected from postsecondary institutions in the IPEDS Fall Enrollment Compliance Report by NCES, in collaboration with OCR, use the five basic racial and ethnic categories for Federal statistics and administrative reports. Those categories are American Indian or Alaskan Native, Asian or Pacific Islander, Black (not of Hispanic origin), Hispanic, and White (not of Hispanic origin). These categories do not disaggregate data for American Indian or Alaskan Native, or Asian or Pacific Islander. However, the University of Alaska system, responsible in Alaska for reporting IPEDS information to NCES for public post-secondary institutions, does separately collect and report data on enrollments of Alaskan Native students. Therefore, we are able to list the percentage of Alaskan Native students attending postsecondary institutions in Alaska that report to the IPEDS Fall Enrollment Compliance Report. Similarly, postsecondary institutions in Hawaii separately collect data on

enrollments of Native Hawaiian and part-Hawaiian students attending postsecondary institutions in Hawaii. Therefore, we are also able to list the percentage of Native Hawaiian students attending postsecondary institutions in Hawaii that report to the IPEDS Fall Enrollment Compliance Report.
