[quote=Anonymous]Agree that state flagships will continue to become popular. I see nobody has mentioned the "demographic cliff" that begins in 2 years. It will be interesting to see how a shrinking population in U.S. and abroad will impact university program and pricing decisions. I wonder if flagships will need to expand their "consortiums" with other states for in-state tuition as their populations decline? Also not mentioned is the growing trend for U.S. kids to go to the U.K. or other countries for favorable tuition rates. As more of these countries wise up and expand their English speaking offerings, U.S. colleges will need to factor in yet another competitor when trying to hit the merit aid sweet spot. $40k to $50k COA won't cut it when Europe can be half the price even with travel. And Canadian universities although they have an international premium fee are attractive when there is 25% xr rate discount. [/quote]
