U.S. and Canadian Institutions Listed by Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Endowment Market Value and Change in Endowment Market Value1 from FY20 to FY21

The Change in Endowment Market Value is NOT the investment rate of return. See the footnote at the bottom of the table for a definition of the Change in Endowment Market Value.

Note: The data in this spreadsheet will NOT agree with data presented in any other tables or charts in the 2021 NACUBO-TIAA Study of Endowments (NTSE).

Source: 2021 NACUBO-TIAA Study of Endowments. This table was created in February 2022 and revised in March 2022.

1. The change in market values listed for the participating institutions DOES NOT represent the investment rate of return for the endowments’ investments. Rather, the change in the market value of an endowment from FY20 to FY21 reflects the net impact of: 1) withdrawals to fund institutional operations and capital expenses; 2) the payment of endowment management and investment fees; 3) additions from donor gifts and other contributions; and 4) investment gains or losses. The market values also include the estimated valuations of real estate and other “illiquid” assets, which may have large increases or decreases in value during a relatively short period of time. In addition, transfers to the endowment from other institutional budget accounts, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates for non-U.S. investments, may account for large changes in endowment market values. These factors suggest that any large increases or decreases in endowments over the past year may be exaggerated. As such, large percentage changes should be interpreted very cautiously.

2. The IPEDS Unit ID (Unitid) is available only for U.S. colleges, universities, and state university system offices. There are no IPEDS ID numbers for Canadian institutions or for non-profit higher education organizations that do not enroll students. The UnitID data are provided by the 2021 IPEDS (Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System) Institutional Characteristics Survey, conducted the National Center for Education Statistics. Missing/Not Applicable respnses indicate that the institution either did not participate in the IPEDS survey, or the IPEDS information was missing.
