Will My College Thrive?

Demographic Cliff

The overall pool of US students is shrinking, but this hides significant differences between states and regions. Colleges with student pipelines from growing areas are positioned to thrive while others will struggle to survive.

Selectivity Matters

Elite schools will fare better. This leaves even fewer graduating high school students for the rest. Non-selective schools with poor demographics will have the highest risk of financial difficulties.

Degree Program Demand

The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts job growth in many fields. This growth will increase student demand for institutions with the right academic programs.
