The revenue in the 'Online University Education' segment of the eservices market in Indonesia was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2028 by in total 0.6 billion U.S. dollars (+71.43 percent). After the tenth consecutive increasing year, the revenue is estimated to reach 1.41 billion U.S. dollars and therefore a new peak in 2028. Notably, the revenue of the 'Online University Education' segment of the eservices market was continuously increasing over the past years.

For-profit universities have managed to generate some revenue growth through the current period even as external challenges have weighed on the industry. While higher educational institutions have faced rising skepticism amid high student debt, for-profit universities' more affordable price tags helped them avoid more significant enrollment declines. Competition from vocational schools and other affordable alternatives pressured the industry's pricing power, but robust tuition hikes have kept revenue on a steady trajectory upward in the pandemic's aftermath. Industry revenue has ultimately swelled at a CAGR of 0.2% to an estimated $13.9 billion over the five years through 2024. Regulators have gone back and forth on the industry's oversight over the past decade. For-profit universities came under scrutiny in the Obama administration for misleading students into high-debt programs with poor job prospects. However, the Trump administration eased these restrictions, making federal aid more accessible while still mandating the entry of student employment, earnings, and debt statistics into a public database. Now, the Biden administration plans to revamp the gainful employment rule, effective July 2024. This policy requires that these universities report low graduate debt-to-earnings ratios to remain eligible for federal funds. With this new price pressure, profit may compress. In the next five years, the industry is expected to recover further as ongoing economic fluctuations bring back enrollment growth. High interest rates will lift unemployment rates, incentivizing jobless workers to enroll in for-profit universities to enhance their employability. Enrollment will grow at a more muted pace than the industry's competitors as for-profit universities adapt to new financial value transparency rules and remain the subject of public skepticism. Ongoing student debt cancellation efforts could further impact the industry, as a surge in risk-free higher education enrollments would boost enrollment if broad-sweeping forgiveness becomes a reality. Overall, industry revenue is set to climb at a CAGR of 0.9% to $14.5 billion through the end of 2029.

In 2016, Vermont was the state with the highest percentage of educational revenue covered by tuition at public colleges. 86 percent of educational revenue was covered by tuition in Vermont. On the other hand, in Wyoming, only 13 percent of educational revenue was covered by tuition at public colleges.

Higher Education Market: Definition/ Overview

Higher education is the platform of learning at universities, colleges, and other institutions that offer academic degrees or professional certificates. This level of education typically follows the completion of secondary school and includes undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate degrees. The fundamental purpose of higher education is to give students with advanced information, critical thinking abilities, and specialized training in a number of subjects, preparing them for professional occupations, research, or academia. It serves as an essential basis for personal and societal development, contributing to a nation's economic growth and creativity by providing individuals with the skills required to fulfill the needs of a rapidly changing labor market.

This table gives an overview of government expenditure on regular education in the Netherlands since 1900. All figures presented have been calculated according to the standardised definitions of the OECD.

Government expenditure on education consists of expenditure by central and local government on education institutions and education. Government finance schools, colleges and universities. It pays for research and development conducted by universities. Furthermore it provides student grants and loans, allowances for school costs, provisions for students with a disability and child care allowances to households as well as subsidies to companies and non-profit organisations.

Total government expenditure is broken down into expenditure on education institutions and education on the one hand and government expenditure on student grants and loans and allowances for school costs to households on the other. If applicable these subjects are broken down into pre-primary and primary education, special needs primary education, secondary education, senior secondary vocational and adult education, higher professional education and university education. Data are available from 1900. Figures for the Second World War period are based on estimations due to a lack of source material.

The table also includes the indicator government expenditure on education as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP). This indicator is used to compare government expenditure on education internationally. The indicator is compounded on the basis of definitions of the OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development). The indicator is also presented in the StatLine table education; Education expenditure and CBS/OECD indicators. Figures for the First World War and Second World War period are not available for this indicator due to a lack of reliable data on GDP for these periods.

The statistic on education spending is compiled on a cash basis. This means that the education expenditure and revenues are allocated to the year in which they are paid out or received. However, the activity or transaction associated with the payment or receipt can take place in a different year.

Statistics Netherlands published the revised National Accounts in June 2018. Among other things, GDP has been adjusted upwards as a result of the revision.

Revenue for colleges and universities in China is expected to grow at an annualized 2.9% over the five years through 2024 to reach $29.3 billion, including a 2.4% rise in the current year. A substantial amount of industry revenue comes from government subsidies, and increasing attention to higher education has been driving the development of the industry. The industry comprises 4,730 institutions, employing 2.5 million people with an estimated payroll of almost $15.6 billion. Public universities and colleges are public welfare and not-for-profit.This industry also benefits from international students studying at Chinese universities (i.e., exports). About 526,000 international students studying in China are expected to generate $1.7 billion for the industry in 2024. Higher education imports (i.e., Chinese students at foreign institutions) are expected to total $9.9 billion in 2024. In 2024, an estimated 820,173 Chinese students are studying at foreign higher education institutions.Revenue for colleges and universities in China is forecast to increase by an annualized 1.8% over the five years through 2029 to reach $32.0 billion. The main growth drivers will be steady increases in demand for higher education and rising government funding levels. The continued globalization of China's economy will facilitate frequent international exchanges and cooperation between institutions, raising demand for higher education in China and boosting industry’s competitiveness.In recent years, some Chinese universities have performed outstandingly in international rankings. In the QS World University Rankings, some universities have been increasing yearly, reflecting their improvement in education quality, research capabilities, and internationalization level. In addition, Chinese universities have carried out large-scale disciplinary and professional adjustments to meet the needs of social development and industrial transformation. These adjustments include adding and removing majors, as well as transforming and upgrading existing majors.

The Educational Services sector comprises 13 subsectors of the US economy, ranging from public schools to testing and educational support services. Primary, secondary and postsecondary schools alone generate 92.0% of the sector's revenue. Most of these institutions rely entirely on government funding, and nearly three-quarters of the educational services revenue comes from public schools and public universities. Accordingly, strong federal, state and local support for all levels of education has driven revenue upward over the past five years. Expanding discretionary budgets made private schools and higher education more affordable for students and parents, but the Trump administration's changing policies have brought new complications. Still, substantial funding and skyrocketing investment returns for private nonprofit universities have elevated revenue. Revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 4.6% to an estimated $2.7 trillion through the end of 2025, when revenue will rise by 1.1%. Solid state and local government funding for education has helped support the sector's success despite fluctuating enrollment. Faltering birth rates are leading to lower headcounts in K-12 schools, and ballooning student debt has made many would-be college students skeptical of the return on investment of an expensive degree. While student loan forgiveness efforts slowed a decline in the number of college students, the new presidential administration's end to these efforts has begun to exacerbate price-based and quality-based competition among higher education institutions. President Trump's scrutiny of course curricula has made public funds harder to acquire for schools, and the administration's efforts to close the Department of Education have begun to deter would-be students from attending college. Trends in the domestic economy are set to move in the Educational Services sector's favor over the next five years as prospective students become better able to pay for rising tuition rates and premium education options. Government funding for primary, secondary and postsecondary institutions will continue to escalate through the next period, though lackluster enrollment will temper revenue growth. Public schools, which account for over half the sector's revenue, will continue to post losses and drag down the average profit for educational services. New school choice initiatives, including Texas's new, largest-ever voucher program, will make private schools more affordable for parents. However, heightened oversight and continued efforts to close the Department of Education will remain a significant pain point for many educational services. Overall, revenue is set to climb at a CAGR of 0.8% to $2.8 trillion through the end of 2030.

The average revenue per user in the 'Online University Education' segment of the eservices market in Indonesia was forecast to remain on a similar level in 2028 as compared to 2024 with 0.76 thousand U.S. dollars. According to this forecast, the average revenue per user will stay nearly the same over the forecast period. Notably, the average revenue per user of the 'Online University Education' segment of the eservices market was continuously increasing over the past years.

Endowment returns for many universities skyrocketed early in the current period, largely fueled by booming private equity and hedge fund activity. In 2021, private nonprofit universities saw a staggering 684.0% jump in investment returns. In contrast, public universities, which typically hold smaller endowments invested more in US equities and fixed-income assets, experienced more modest gains. Meanwhile, inflation and rising interest rates in 2022 reversed the boom for private nonprofits, while public universities' endowments' focus on fixed-income assets stabilized their returns. Skyrocketing investment returns bolstered surpluses, but rising wage expenditures among expanding staff sizes have since brought down profit. Revenue has been sinking at a CAGR of 0.6% over the five years through 2025 to an estimated $610.9 billion despite an expected 1.7% rise in 2025 alone. Colleges and universities are contending with sluggish enrollment growth. Lackluster job placement rates and the highly publicized student debt crisis have made many potential students skeptical of a college degree's return on investment. With judicial reviews rendering the Biden administration's efforts to ease the burden of student debt unsuccessful, student loans remain a major deterrent for consumers. Many have instead opted for cheaper trade schools with reliable connections to employers. Community colleges' affordable prices are also making them a larger competitive threat to four-year universities. In response, universities are hiring capable staff and ramping up marketing campaigns to promote the value of their degree programs. Mounting automation will encourage many to enroll in a university to switch to a new field with more job security. Student loans will become more attractive as inflation stabilizes and the Federal Reserve continues to lower interest rates, encouraging traditional university enrollment. Still, the Trump administration's end to student debt forgiveness initiatives will lead to more price sensitivity among potential students, intensifying competition both between universities and with other cheaper options for postsecondary education. International students will remain a valuable revenue stream, especially as legislative changes in Canada promote higher education in the US with students from overseas. Revenue is set to swell at a CAGR of 0.6% to an estimated $636.0 billion through the end of 2030.

In the academic year of 2021/22, public universities and colleges in the United States received approximately 83.36 billion U.S. dollars of revenue through tuition and fees charged to students. A further 40.98 billion U.S. dollars in revenue came from federal grants and contracts.

The number of college students represents the total enrollment (part-time and full-time, undergraduate and graduate) of both public and private universities. Data is sourced from the National Center for Education Statistics.

Over the forecast period until 2029, the revenue of online education in Portugal is predicted to exhibit fluctuations among the three segments analyzed. Overall, the indicator follows a positive trend until 2029. The segment of online university education achieves the relatively highest value throughout the entire period, reaching 292.57 million euros.

Lackluster demand for primary, secondary and postsecondary educational services has pushed many institutions to seek services that enhance their value propositions, like counseling, professional development and education consulting. At the same time, higher government funding for education in the current period has expanded clients' budgets, enabling them to invest more in testing and educational support services. Concerns surrounding the price of a college education have especially bolstered support services as universities look for ways to improve their graduates' job prospects. Still, the removal or suspension of standardized testing requirements in the college admissions process has strained revenue for testing services. Revenue has been surging at a CAGR of 7.8% to an estimated $32.5 billion over the past five years, including expected growth of 2.0% in 2025 alone. Birth rates in the US have steadily dropped, leading to shrinking enrollment in primary and secondary schools and educators struggling to replace graduating students. Testing and educational support services have accordingly faced a shrinking market, but solid spending power downstream and significant investments in student retention programs have buoyed revenue. Staggering student debt figures are discouraging many graduates from pursuing higher education, but lower-cost alternatives like community colleges have prevented these concerns from significantly impacting testing and educational support services. However, skepticism surrounding higher education overall has spurred demand for education consultants from potential students seeking to navigate the evolving enrollment environment. These long-term shifts present a challenge to providers, but testing and educational support services have demonstrated resiliency and continued to generate revenue growth. Testing centers are expected to face more pressure through the next period. Suspended testing requirements for university admissions will continue to be the norm, but some schools may reinstitute their requirements. Price competition will intensify as more educational support service providers enter the market, dampening revenue and profit. The continued proliferation of online courses will uplift providers capable of delivering flexible services and sustain profit, though growing workforces will strain it. The Trump administration's efforts to expand school choice programs will make private schools a more lucrative market for testing and educational support services. Still, rising income levels and strong state and local government support will fuel college enrollment and drive revenue growth. Testing and educational support services revenue is set to mount at a CAGR of 1.1% to an estimated $34.3 billion over the five years through 2030.

In the 2021/22 academic year, private nonprofit bachelor's higher education institutions in the United States received an average net tuition revenue of 17,040 U.S. dollars per full-time equivalent (FTE) student. This compares to 18,850 U.S. dollars for the 2011/12 academic year, when adjusted to 2021 dollars.

Community colleges in the US are undergoing a significant transformation, shaped by shifting student demand, economic pressures and volatile public policy in the wake of COVID. Between 2020 and 2025, community colleges have transitioned from pandemic emergency response to a phase of strategic recovery and adaptation. Following a dramatic enrollment decline during COVID-19, when students paused their education because of public health concerns, economic instability and the rapid transition to online learning, the industry is now experiencing a significant rebound. In spring 2025, two-year colleges saw a 5.4% surge in attendance, the strongest growth among all undergraduate settings. Several factors drove this growth: inflation and rising living costs made community colleges’ lower tuition more attractive, while skepticism about the value of a four-year degree prompted more students to seek affordable, flexible programs that quickly build in-demand skills. Despite rising enrollment, revenue has increased at a CAGR of 0.9%, reaching an estimated $75.2 billion in 2025, because most new students pay low tuition, state funding growth remains modest and operating challenges strain resources. As a result, colleges benefit from stronger demand without a corresponding boost in revenue or profit. Community colleges' policy and regulatory landscape is evolving rapidly at the federal and state levels. Recent federal actions, including the Trump administration’s elimination of race-based admissions practices and equity action plans, signal a move from earlier diversity and accountability requirements tied to federal funding. Persistent FAFSA processing delays and confusing changes have disrupted access to financial aid and uncertainty around Pell Grant structure and funding complicates efforts to support low-income students. State policy directions vary widely: while states like Ohio are imposing new restrictions on DEI initiatives and faculty rights, and New Jersey is contemplating a $20.0 billion funding cut, others like Illinois are expanding community colleges’ authority to offer bachelor’s degrees in high-demand fields. While ongoing policy reforms, demographic shifts and affordability concerns will continue to shape the industry, community colleges are poised to play a crucial role in broadening access to higher education and supporting targeted workforce growth. Colleges face strong tailwinds from increased demand for affordable, career-focused programs, growing interest in upskilling and new private-sector partnerships. However, uncertain funding, regulatory volatility and persistent financial aid challenges remain significant headwinds. Converting higher enrollment into stronger financial health will require stable resources, policy agility and ongoing innovation to serve a diverse student population. Overall, revenue is forecast to rise slowly at CAGR of 0.1%, reaching $75.5 billion in 2030.

In the 2020-2021 academic year in the United States, community college revenues from tuition totaled to about 15.49 billion U.S. dollars. The most funding came from states, at 22.99 billion U.S. dollars.
