Recent Enrollment Trends in Degree-Granting Institutions in New York State. Perspectives for Planning.
New York State Education Dept., Albany. Office of Postsecondary Research, Information Systems, and Institutional Aid.
Data presented were made available through the cooperative efforts of the State Education Department and the responding institutions, the principal data source being the computerized Postsecondary Information System's DATACORE. This document demonstrates some of the system's capabilities in displaying basic enrollment data. Three approaches are used here to display data, each providing a different perspective on enrollment patterns and trends. Some of the general findings are as follows: total state enrollment reached an all-time high in 1975 of nearly one million students; both full-time and part-time undergraduate enrollments increased, but part-time enrollment grew more rapidly; full-time graduate enrollment increased slightly, while part-time enrollment decreased slightly; the State University and private sector enrollments increased at about the same rate, while City University enrollments decreased; private and state community colleges experienced substantial increase in both full-time and part-time undergraduate enrollments; private engineering technical colleges grew substantially in enrollments; and the proportion of New York State high school graduates going on to postsecondary education in the state has remained stable over the first half of this decade. The report also provides detailed data on individual institutions. (Author/LBH)
