In 2022, there were approximately 107,700 students with American Indian or Alaskan Native heritage enrolled at a university in the United States. This is a slight increase from the previous year, when there were 106,600 students with American Indian or Alaska Native heritage enrolled in postsecondary education.

In 2029, the projected number of White high school students enrolled in four-year colleges in the United States was around 1,913,800, a decrease when compared to 2,266,000 in 2019. For Hispanic high school students, however, the projected number of those enrolled in college in 2029 was approximately 620,000, an increase from 607,400 in 2019.

This dataset contains the total annual unduplicated enrollment headcount and percentages by race and gender for undergraduate and graduate students at public community colleges and state universities in Massachusetts since 2014.

This dataset is 1 of 2 datasets that is also published in the interactive Annual Enrollment dashboard on the Department of Higher Education Data Center:

Public Postsecondary Annual Enrollment Public Postsecondary Annual Enrollment by Race and Gender

Notes: - Data appear as reported to the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education. - Annual enrollment refers to a 12 month enrollment period over one fiscal year (July 1 through June 30). - Figures published by DHE may differ slightly from figures published by other institutions and organizations due to differences in timing of publication, data definitions, and calculation logic. - Data for the University of Massachusetts are not included due to unique reporting requirements. See Fall Enrollment for HEIRS data on UMass enrollment. -The most common measure of enrollment is headcount of enrolled students. Annual headcount enrollment is unduplicated, meaning any individual student is only counted once per institution and fiscal year, even if they are enrolled in multiple terms. Enrollment can also be measured as full-time equivalent (FTE) students, a calculation based on the sum of credits carried by all enrolled students. In a fiscal year, 30 undergraduate credits = 1 undergraduate FTE, and 24 graduate credits = 1 graduate FTE at a state university.

In 2021, about 20.6 percent of postsecondary students in the United States were Hispanic. This is a slight increase from 20.3 percent in the previous year. In that same year, White students made up more than half of postsecondary students, at 53.4 percent.

Massachusetts offers a variety of pathways and programs to ensure students graduate college and career ready. These include Career Technical Education (CTE) programs, Early College, and Innovation Pathways. For more information about these pathways and programs, visit the Office of College, Career, and Technical Education website.

This dataset contains student enrollment data for all public and charter schools and districts since 2022. It is a wide file with three groups of columns representing the following enrollment indicators:

• Number of students in CTE programs, Early College, and Innovation Pathways by grade, including grades 9-12 and special education beyond grade 12 (SP)
• Percent of students in CTE programs, Early College, and Innovation Pathways by race and gender
• Number and percent of students in CTE programs, Early College, and Innovation Pathways in student groups: First Language Not English, English Learners, Students with Disabilities, High Needs, Low Income, and Economically Disadvantaged

Economically Disadvantaged was used 2015-2021. Low Income was used prior to 2015, and a different version of Low Income has been used since 2022. Please see the DESE Researcher's Guide for more information.

After Dark Chapter 74 enrollment is a subset of Chapter 74 Program enrollment. Also, in 2022, some districts reported enrollment in additional Innovation Pathway sectors. This report includes only the five designated sectors.
