Enrollment Projections, 2003-2012: Maryland Public Colleges and Universities.
Keller, Michael J.
This document presents enrollment projections for the public colleges and universities in Maryland through 2012. There are headcount projections for each higher education institution, with breakdowns by full- and part-time undergraduates, and, as applicable, full- and part-time graduate/professional students. Full-time equivalent (FTE) and full-time day equivalent (FTDE) projections were calculated, and projections were also developed for state-eligible FTE noncredit continuing education enrollments at the community colleges. Total headcount enrollment at Maryland public higher education institutions is expected to increase by 24%, or more than 59,000 students, in 2012. This is 4,000 students more than the forecast for the 2002-2011 period the previous year, and it reflects a more optimistic view of growth expected at the community colleges. Total enrollments in the next 10 years are expected to grow 18% at the community colleges and 29% at the 4-year campuses. FTE and FTDE enrollments at the community colleges are expected to increase by 19%, and FTE and FTDE figures are projected to increase by 20% and 11% respectively at the public 4-year institutions. Of the anticipated additional students by 2012, 77% will be undergraduates, but only 38% will be full-time undergraduates. (SLD)
