A GRAPHICAL ANALYSIS

of the

FALL 2010 PRELIMINARY

OPENING ENROLLMENT REPORTof the Maryland Public Four Year Institutions

January 2011

Prepared by the Office of Institutional ResearchUniversity of Baltimore

PrefaceThis graphical analysis provides a brief graphic overview of the enrollment of the public four-year universities and colleges of Maryland for fall 2010. The intent is to monitor by graphic illustration the broad changes in enrollment for these institutions. Comparisons are made herein for headcount only, on a one-year and five-year basis. Emphasis on the University of Baltimore is added.

The data contained in this graphic overview is from following reports:

University System of Maryland Report, Fall 20010 Preliminary Opening Enrollment and FY 2011Estimated FTE Report*.

Maryland Higher Education Commission, 2010 Opening Fall Enrollment

Data for Morgan State University and St. Mary’s College of Maryland is drawn from the second of these two reports, while the first report provides the data for the University of System of Maryland universities.

The reader will note that the University of Maryland University College has exceptional enrollment growth. As a principally on-line institution, it draws much of its enrollment from outside the higher educational market of the Maryland public four-year institutions. It is included here for purposes on comprehensive coverage; comparison must be made with recognition of its substantially different mission and market service.

Please send your questions and suggestions to the Office of Institutional Research, 602 AC Building.

*Preliminary indicates that document is pending approval by the State of Maryland Board of Regents.

Note: 1) University of Baltimore is omitted from this chart, freshmen enrollments were not offered until fall 2007. (2) Table 3 in the USM source document mistakenly shows 4-year growth rates, although labeled as 5-year growth rates. The data is shown corrected above.
