! Interpret data with caution. Standard error is more than one-third the estimate. NOTE: This table shows, for example, that in 2003–04, 3.7 percent of credential-seeking undergraduates in agriculture and natural resources were seeking certificates. Also, 0.5 percent of undergraduates who sought certificates were in agriculture and natural resources programs. There were approximately 10,700,000 crediential-seeking career education undergraduates in 2003-04. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
