Increased need for scholarships
Increased institutional competition for students
Demographic shifts Reduction in number of high
school graduates nationally Families undergoing change
(delaying marriage, children) More women than men
graduating from college ~ 60% More women employed than
men
College students increasingly older (40% 24 years or older)
Increasingly “minority” By 2019-20, 45% of high
school graduates will be non-white
