In recent years, universities and colleges across the United States have been facing a significant challenge known as the "Enrollment Cliff." This term encapsulates the sharp decline in student enrollment, particularly among traditional college-aged students.
What has caused this decline? And how can universities adapt to not only survive but thrive in this new landscape?
Understanding the Enrollment Cliff
The Enrollment Cliff can be attributed to several factors, chief among them being the shifting perceptions of value among Generation Z. Unlike previous generations, Gen Z doesn't automatically see a college degree as the golden ticket to success. Rising tuition costs, coupled with uncertainties about job prospects post-graduation, have led many prospective students and their families to question the return on investment of a college education.
