WASHINGTON, D.C. (USANN4)–Undergraduate enrollments jumped by more than a third in the first decade of the 21st century. That’s according to a new report by the National Center for Education Statistics. The federal report says the biggest growth occurred at for-profit colleges.
It was the fastest decade of growth since the 1970s. For-profit colleges enrolled nine percent of undergraduates in 2009, up from three percent in 2000.
