This report lau/ches _ series of analytical report be
prepar .d by the Office of Postsecondary Research, Information Systems, and
Institutional Aid. Based on data collected by the New York State Education
Department, this first report examines higher education enrollment patterns
in New York State. It has two purposes: to present and analyze enrollment
data from a number of different perspectives, and to encourage institutions
to examine their own relative positions by using these data and perspectives.
Data presented in this report were made available through the
cooperative efforts of the Education Department and the respondi-- insti
tutions. The principal data source ts the New York State Higher Education
Data System HEDS), specifically the key data eleMents included in the
"Postsecondary Information Systems DATACORE," being developed by the Office
kof Postsecondary Research, Information Systems, and Institutional Aid.
The computerized DATACORE sy.tem will make it possible to provide the
Department and others with timely information about postsecondary education
in the State. This document demonstrates some of the system s capabilities
in displaying basic enrollment data. As DATACORE i- expanded and refined,
it will provide similar capabilities in other areas as well.
These data, and perspectives for their application, provide a
framework for institutions in discerning trends of significance and in
developing plans for the future. The data the appendixes can be
used by individual institutions to assess in more detail their relative
positions within the overall postsecondary system of the State. Insti
tutional selfassessment will become more import-t, as the number of high
school graduates declines and as competition for students becomes more intense.

Postsecondary education in New York State is expe iencing increased
financial pressures related to the fiscal circumstances of both the State
and Nation. Competition among postsecondary institutions for students is
also increasing, as the number of high school graduates b = to decl ne.
Within this context of competition for both resources and students,
enroliMent statistics are probably the best indicators of institutional
performance. This report illustrates the basic historical enrollment
data as indicators of growth or contraction.
Three aggregations of enrollment data are shown: state ide,
regional, and sector/institutional type. Combinations of these levels of
aggregate data also have utility. In addition, institutionlevel character
istics and data are provided as a means for further analysis by individual
institutions in evaluating their ow_
significant for their own purposes
postsecondary education community.
The report is organized as
situations, according to what is
and positions within the State's
follows: the first section, General
Perspectilaes, offers a broad view of enrollments for the first half of the
decade, which provides a general backdrop for viewing future directions.
The second gection, Market Share, applies a business concept to postsecondary
enrollments for regions and different types of institutions. The third
section, Residence and Migration, analyzes the dynamics of student flow
among regions and types of institutions. The final section is a synopsis of
the entire report. Pertinent data are provided at the end of each section.
In addition, two appendixes provide explanations of selected institutional
characteristics and present specific enrollment data for individual
institutions.10

T = totr numtier of students attending degree-granting institutions
in New Yor( State rePci d almost one million in fall 1975. This represents
an all-time high in enrollment and an increase of oval- 275,000 (39 percent)
since fall 1969. As shriml in 1 enrollment has ex anded at all levels
of postsecondary education. *:al-time undergraduate enrollment grew from
just under 4001000 students in 1969 to over 548,000 ln 1975, an increase
of almost 38 percent. During the same period, ful14.1m graduate and
first-pro essional enrolime t increased by more than 11,000 (23 percent ) to
more than 63,000.
Figure 1 illustrates the relative growth in both full-time and
part-time undergraduate and graduate enrollments for each year between 1969
and 1975. Most significant is the greater proportion e increaQe in part-time
undergraduate over full-time undergraduate enrollment -- 56 versus 38 percent.
A more detailed look at enrollments for 1974 and 1975 is provided
in tables 2A (undergraduate) and 28 (graduate), which show enrollments by
ector and type of institution.* At the undergraduate level, part-time
enrollment has grown more rapidly than full-time enrollment -- an average
rate of increase of 10 versus 6.6 percent. This pattern is reflected in each
of the three sectors State University, City University, and private). In
contrast full-time graduate enrollment increased statewide, while part-time
enrollment actually decreased. The State University and private sectors
reflect this pattern, whereas the City University showed a decline in both
full-time and part-time graduate enrollment.
*The institutional typology used for this report is shown in appendix A,
table A-1.

part-time enrollment noted ror tne btate university e oitunuiu LUJ.W6tr,0
private enginecring-teehnical college , and private 2-year colleges; the
State University statutory colleges, university colleges, and agricultural-
technical colleges gained in part-time enrollments. The State University
health sciences centers increased in full-time enrollment and declined in
part-time enrollment. Undergraduate decreases occurred for the City
University community colleges in full-time enrollment and the seminaries
in part-time enrollment.
Overall, the private 2-year colleges led in undergraduate
enrollment growth. However, this is partially bali_ced by the fact that,
for 1975, these institutions enrolled only three percent of the full-time
two percent of the part-time undergraduates in the State; Next in rate of
growth were the private engineering-technical colleges, with substantial
increases in both full-time and part-time enrollment
Graduate increases in both full-time and part-time enrollments are
noted for the State University specialized colleges and private colleges; the
private engineering-technical colleges gained in full-time enrollments and
the State University health sciences centers and seminaries gained in part-time
enrollments. The State University specialized colleges gained in full-time
enrollment, whereas the private specialized colleges declined; the State
University health sciences centers gained in part-time enrollment, whereas
the private health sciences centers declined. Graduate decreases occurred
for the City University senior colleges, with relatively high proportionate
losses in both the full-time and part-time categories.
and
Overall, the fulltime graduate enrollment growth of the private
engineeringtechnical colleges and the total enrollment decline of the
City University are the most apparent trends to be noted.
It is emphasized that the undergraduate enrollment growth shown
in figure 1 and tables 1 and 2A reflects an increase in the number of high
school graduates, rather than an increase in the preference of people f
college. Figures from the Department's Basic Educational Data System show
a relatively constb.nt proportion of New York State high school graduates
going on to postsecondary education in the State during the first half of
the seventies. Since the number of high school graduates began to decline
in 1976, and will decline substantially over the next 15 years, institutions
cannot depend on the former trend to sustain their enrollments.*
The New York State Education Department will release revised enrollmentprojections as part of the Regents 176 _Statewide Flan for the_Develo ent ofPostsecondarr Chapter 2, "Higher Education Enrollment in the1980's: Declining _ectations" will provide both enrollment projections andinterpretations.

ARIET SHARE
The concept of market share may, with discretion, be useful for
observing trends in postsecondary education. If applied to enrollment
shifts between the public and private sectors, for example,it might describe
some of the competition for students. It could also be applied to specific
types of institutions, such as law schools, to illustrate how well each is
attracting students.
While competition for students will, for specific institutions, be
translated into competition with a relatively small set of competitors, it
is not an objective of this report to heighten tensions that may exist in
this regard. To minimize such a possibility, this section deals with
fairly large groups of institutions, with responsibility left to the
reader to determine implications for individual institutions.
Two sets of market share statistics are presented. Table 3 shows
the share of statewide undergraduate enrollment by geographic region and
table 4 shows the share by type of institution. Both tables provide
percentage share statistics for 1974 and 1975, as well as the change over
the one-year period.
Regional Comparisons
When institutions of all sizes, types, and sectors are aggregated
as shown in table 3, New York City realized the greatest decline in
regional share of both full-time and part-time enrollments. Although some
of the decline in the City University enrollments were picked up by private
institutions in the New York City region, it was not large enough to prevent
a net decline for the region. Whether the gains of both full-time and
-9-
parttime students in the Mid-Hudson and Long Island Regions are indicative
of some migration of New York City students cannot be determined from these
data.
Other regional share declines include full-time enrollment in the
Central Region and part-time enrollment in the Genesee Valley and Northern
Regions. Only if these declines were to continue would they begin to
assume significance. The same may be said for the increasing share of
part-time students in the Northeast Region.
..2ecsonsTable 4 presents market share trend data between 1974 and 1975
for the major types of institutions. The institutional type shares are
percentage distributions of each year's undergraduate enrollment 100 x
institutional type nrollment total enrollment). The changes expressed
are the arithmetic differences in percentages of each institutional type's
share between 1974 and 1975-
The most significant change is the decline in the City University
of both full-time and part-time enrollments in both the senior and community
colleges. Despite the decline in the City Univ sity's share of full-time
undergraduate enrollments, the percentage change in actual enrollment
declined less than one percent between 1974 and 1975 (table 2A). The market
share approach accentuates the decline because of the over six percent
increase in total full-time undergraduate enrollment in the State.
Other changes worth noting are the percentage increase in share of
full-time enrollments at the private-engineering colleges, the percentage
increase in share of part-time enrollments at the State University,
especially its community colleges, and the percentage decrease in share of
part-time enrollments at the City University, especially its senior colleges.

The State Education Department is studying the application of
these market shar- concepts to the Statets postsecondary education system
and will be pre.enting more indepth analyses as they are completed. In
the meantime, institutions interested in assessing their own individual
performance in the "marketplace can use the data provided in the appendixes
to develop institution institution market share statistics. These
statistics may help institutions to identify problem situations and provide
insights on how to attract students more effective

SELECTED INSTITUTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
The information system used by OPRISIA* includes a number of
standard "institutional characteristics" -- items intended to provide
relatively stable descriptors of each institution. Such desc iptors
facilitate not only data retrieval, but also dataPresentation and
The five basic institutional characteristics used in this report
are presented, by individual institution, in table A-3. All institutions
reporting data in year from 1969 to the present are included; this
includes several schools' that are currently nonoperational.
Each of the five selected institutional characteristics is
described as follows:
pe of Institution: Table A-1 lists the complete institutional typology.
The category "PublicSpecial" was created to allow classification of the
U.S. Military Academy at West Point, the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at
Kings Point, and the Regents External Degree Program. The categories
under the State University of New York (SUNY) and The City University of
New York (CUNY) are those developed by the respective public university
eystems. The categories under the private institutions were developed by
the New York State Education Department: unique academic characteristics
identified the five types coded 2050 through 2090;"expenditures were then
used to delimit the four types 2010 through 2040.**
