Does endowment of a university depend on its location?

<p>

UT Austin has always received 45% of the UT system endowment. Its portion as of June 2010 would be 6.323 billion, placing it between Michigan and Northwestern. </p>

<p>Michigan does not release endowment data by campus. Ann Arbor has 95% of expenditures, but a similar percentage of endowment would yield $6.288 billion, which seems much too low to be accurate…I would wager Michigan maintains the highest endowment among the publics, though perhaps not by much.</p>

<p>Texas A&M has 50% of the A&M system endowment, so with $2.869 billion, it’s much lower than the others.</p>
