Higher education faces a looming demographic storm. Decades-long patterns in fertility, migration, and immigration persistently nudge the country toward the Hispanic Southwest. As a result, the Northeast and Midwest - traditional higher education strongholds - expect to lose five percent of their college-aged populations between now and the mid-2020s.
In Demographics and the Demand for Higher Education, Nathan D. Grawe has developed the Higher Education Demand Index (HEDI), which relies on data from the 2002 Education Longitudinal Study (ELS) to estimate the probability of college-going using basic demographic variables. Analyzing demand forecasts by institution type and rank while disaggregating by demographic groups, Grawe provides separate forecasts for two-year colleges, elite institutions, and everything in between. The future demand for college attendance, he argues, depends critically on institution type. While many schools face painful contractions, for example, demand for elite schools is expected to grow by more than fifteen percent in future years.
Essential for administrators and trustees who are responsible for recruitment, admissions, student support, tenure practices, facilities construction, and strategic planning, this book is a practical guide for navigating coming enrollment challenges.

"This should be a "must-read" for higher ed leadership – faculty, trustees, and administrators. The demographic shifts that Grawe discusses in detail are going to have profound effects on enrollment, especially in the Northeast, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions. The more critical point is that these demographic shifts are already underway. Therefore, colleges and universities should not only be studying the situation, but they should be actively developing strategies to deal with these changing dynamics."
