Hello again Anish,

I can show you where you can find the information you need; however
you would have to retrieve it(one state at a time), compile  and
format the data by yourself.

I would do it for you, but this project is too time-consuming for the fee offered. 

Perhaps you would like to reconsider the price you are offering.

Alternatively, another researcher may consider answering the question
for the listed price.

Best regards, 
Bobbie7

Hello Anish,

Thank you for your clarification.

The National Center for Education Statistics provides a tool to
retrieve the data you need.

Here is the link.
http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/cool/


Instructions:
1. Choose State
2. Choose type of institution 

For Universities select (all three):
Public, 4 year or above  
Private not-for-profit, 4 year or above  
Private for profit, 4 year or above 

For  Community Colleges select
Public, 2 year

3. Search



For example for Alabama Universities:

1. Choose Alabama
2. Choose type of institution: (select all 3)
- Public, 4 year or above  
- Private not-for-profit, 4 year or above  
- Private for profit, 4 year or above 
3. Search

Results: 40 Institutions.
The right column indicates size of the University.
AUBURN UNIVERSITY is the largest with 22,928   students.

Go back and repeat for Alabama Community Colleges.

1. Choose Alabama
2. Choose type of Institution
- Public, 2 year
3. Search

Results: 27 institutions
The right column indicates size of the Community College.
There are 27 community colleges; 
JOHN C CALHOUN STATE COMMUNITY COLLEGE is the largest with 8,879 students.

Repeat for each State


I hope the information provided is helpful.  If anything is not clear,
please make a request for clarification before rating my answer and I
will do my best to help.


Best regards,
