Consequently, some of Austria's private universities are partly or wholly funded by provincial governments, while others are fully privately funded. Accreditation of private universities began in 2001. As of 2020 , Austria has 16 private universities. Most are small (fewer than 1000 students) and specialize in only one or two fields of study.

Presumably due to Title IX considerations, grandfathered schools are also allowed to field one women's sport in D-I, and all five schools choose to do so. Three formerly grandfathered schools moved completely to D-III. The State University of New York at Oneonta , which had been grandfathered in men's soccer, moved totally to D-II in 2006.

Thus, there is the possibility of private institutions employing
