Current Term Enrollment Estimates: Spring 2022
National Student Clearinghouse
"Current Term Enrollment Estimates Report" series is published every December and May by the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. It provides national enrollment estimates by degree level, institutional sector, enrollment intensity, age group, gender, major field as well as state-level enrollment estimates. Starting in fall 2020, state-level enrollment data are also shown by institution sector. Total postsecondary enrollment, which includes both undergraduate and graduate students, fell a further 4.1 percent or 685,000 students in spring 2022 compared to spring 2021. This follows a 3.5 percent drop last spring, for a total two-year decline of 7.4 percent or nearly 1.3 million students since spring 2020. A special analysis of the spring freshmen included this year highlights distinctive pandemic-related enrollment trends. In the first pandemic year, spring starters fell less steeply compared to fall starters (-3.5% in spring 2021, compared to -9.5% in fall 2020), and in the second pandemic year, spring starters rebounded strongly (+4.2%; see page 15), compared to +0.4% for fall 2021 starters.
