| Short Description: | Relying on data from the College Board reports Trends in Student Aid 2011 and Trends in College Pricing 2011, as well as from the Department of Education and other sources, this brief focuses on trends in enrollment, published prices, and net prices (prices net of grant aid) at public two-year and four-year colleges and universities. |
| Annotation: | In fall 2009, three-quarters of all undergraduate students(and 70% of full-time undergraduates) were enrolled
in public institutions. The central role of public institutions in educating the country’s future labor force makes accurate information about prices — both published and net of grant aid — funding sources, and costs of operation critical. This analysis brief summarizes
key data about public four-year and two year institutions, offering an overview of the issues and circumstances facing the sector and its students. |
