Is there a website where you can find how much FCS schools spend on their programs? Just curious how much schools actually fund their programs and what type of profit, if any, they make off their program.

That should be every school in the nation with athletics that received federal funding (pretty much all of them do via students with Pell/Stafford).

But as has been pointed out many times, that list doesn't have any standardized accounting method, and 'income' may or may not include money given to athletics from the college's general budget - especially when income and expenses are equal to the exact dollar. Also schools may or may not include things like stadium maintenance costs.
