The rapid growth of non-government higher education. Financing patterns of the private university were classified by UNESCO into 11 categories. From this categories UNESCO takes several university from all over the world.

One of the world class universities, Harvard included into the eighth categories as private university based on government subsidies. By the research of grant aimed for competition, consultation, training program or special purposed project, Harvard University got education financing. This is the case in United State of America, where lot of private universities got big financing from government from the grant competition.

While STMIK AMIKOM Yogyakarta included into the eleventh categories, private higher education which is didn’t get subsidies from government. Most of the private universities were included in these categories.
