This report contains enrollment projections for public higher education in Texas from 2000 through 2015. Based on current population projections and recent patterns in college and university attendance, enrollment in Texas institutions of higher education is expected to reach well over 1 million students by 2005. This figure represents an increase of more than 72,000 students over 2000 enrollment, producing an annual growth rate of approximately 1.5% during the 5-year period. During the ensuing 5-year period, from 2005 to 2010, enrollments are expected to increase at a rate of 1.3% to provide an additional 66,000 students. For the following 5 years, 2010 to 2015, the growth rate is expected to remain steady, providing an additional 72,000 students. Enrollment projections are made for public universities, public community colleges, and the Texas State Technical College System. An addendum to this report discusses Closing the Gaps in Participation, a description of the magnitude of increases that can be expected in the public sectors of higher education if the strategies outlined in the Texas higher education plan developed by the Coordinating Board are successful. An appendix describes continuing education enrollment in public community and technical colleges. (Contains 3 figures and 21 tables.) (SLD)
