You are right. It is a 19th century "land grant" college, like Cornell.
Technically private but a lot of it is tied in with the state. (Cornell has
schools entirely funded by New York, and annual funding, and it offers
reduced tuition for New York state residents -- or it used to,anyway.)

So much of MIT is funded by the government I forgot that it is officially
private.
