Private/Public Higher Education and the Competition for High Ability Students

Anderson, Richard E.

Journal of Human Resources, 10, 4, 500-11, F 75

The study examines the changing college preferences of able high school students for private versus public higher education. Public higher education not only is enrolling more students but, by low public tuition and expansion of the number of public colleges in competition for able students, has adversely affected private education.
