Illinois Community College Board Fiscal Year 2017 Spring Enrollment Report
Illinois Community College Board
Community colleges report opening Spring term enrollment figures to the Illinois Community College Board using a brief web based survey. These figures reflect student enrollments as of the end of registration for the Spring 2017 semester B usually the 10th day of the term. Overall, compared to the same term one year ago, statewide Spring 2017 headcount enrollments and full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollments both decreased. The Spring 2017 semester headcount was 302,741 compared to 318,524 last year (a headcount decrease of 15,783 or -5.0 percent). The latest FTE count was 167,294 compared with 175,859 a year ago (an FTE decrease of 8,565 or -4.9 percent). FTE figures reflect the total number of credit hours being taken by students divided by 15--the number of semester hours traditionally considered a full-time class load. Table 1 contains comparative statewide Spring tenth-day enrollments for the last five years. Figure 1 illustrates a comparison of headcount and FTE trends from 2013-2017. Table 2 provides a comparison of fiscal year 2013 through fiscal year 2017 Spring headcount enrollments for each community college. Table 3 contains a comparison of full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollments for the same five-year period. Table 4 provides fiscal year 2013 through fiscal year 2017 Spring opening enrollments in internet-based courses at each community college. [For the 2016 report, see ED587219.]
