Does anyone know how many universities there are in Division two that are and are not State supported?

It should be noted that Post University (CACC), Academy of Art (PAC-West), and Salem International University (WVIAC) are private for-profit D2 universities.

Ferris State is public. I can't think of an exception to the rule of a school having "state" in it's name being a public institute.

There used to be a private school in West Virginia called Mountain State University, but it closed in 2012. Its campus was bought by WVU and became the new home of West Virginia Tech.
