Achieving Washington's state attainment goal of 70% of residents aged 25-44 earning a credential requires not just maintaining but increasing college enrollment among high school graduates and adult learners. Increasing enrollment and reaching the attainment goal among Washingtonians from populations historically excluded from higher education requires deliberate emphasis on racial equity in the state policies pursued. Yet, college enrollment rates are stagnant in Washington state--overall and among Black, Latinx, and Indigenous student populations. This policy brief chronicles college enrollment trends in Washington and nationwide and identifies state-level efforts to slow or reverse the college enrollment trend line. It also complements this scan of state strategies with a distillation of the initiatives that existing evidence suggest can increase statewide college enrollment.
