Public universities are funded by the government and open to all students. They’re also not-for-profit and regionally accredited. Because they don’t have to make money for investors, public universities are able to keep tuition costs down for their students.

While several of the nation’s largest and most prestigious private universities have endowments exceeding $1 billion (Harvard University has an endowment of over $37 billion), most public universities can only dream about such funding sources. In fact, many public campuses don’t even have enough money in their coffers to fund construction projects; they rely heavily on state funding instead!
