The Residence and Migration of Students in New England Institutions of Higher Education, Fall 1975. With Net Migration in the Northeast and Comparisons to 1968.
Melican, Robert L.
The flow of postsecondary level students into and out of a state or regional area can be significant to many institutions in their budgeting and planning. In New England the migration of students will continue to be a critical factor in the decades ahead. The data in this report encompass all full-time and part-time students or total headcount enrolled at all levels in degree-granting institutions in the New England states. The findings indicate that those institutions continue to attract significant numbers of students across state lines, but that there have been a number of changes in the patterns of migration since 1968. Although students are attracted in larger numbers to the region's higher educational institutions from outside New England, these students constitute a smaller percentage of the region's total enrollment. Statistical tables are presented for: New England summary by state of residence, 1975 and l968; intra-New England migration, 1975 and 1968; and state tables for Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
