NEW | 📈 This spring, total postsecondary enrollment reached 18.6 million students, a 1% increase over spring 2025, according to the Final Spring Enrollment Trends 2026 Report.
These gains were mostly driven by undergraduate programs. Public institutions, particularly community colleges and public 4-year universities, continued to be the primary source of growth for undergraduate enrollment.

More and more learners are not starting over when they enroll in higher education. They're building on a credential that they've already earned – a certificate, an associate's degree, or even a prior bachelor's degree.
In our latest Data Dive, we explored the Undergraduate Degree Earners report and how student pathways are evolving: https://www.studentclearinghouse.org/nscblog/data-dive-degree-earners-are-building-on-prior-credentials/
“The data suggest that many learners are returning to higher education to change careers or advance professionally. Understanding these pathways can help institutions better support student success,” said Matthew Holsapple, Senior Director of Research, National Student Clearinghouse Research Center.

"Summer melt" refers to the time where students who plan to attend college fail to enroll. Spartanburg Academic Movement (SAM), focused on improving the academic community across the region's 7 school districts, aimed to address this gap after discovering it through StudentTracker reports.
The data from StudentTracker was more accurate, timely, and actionable than the college freshman report the county had been using – and it helped SAM spark statewide change.
Take a look back and learn more about how SAM is finding solutions for "summer melt" with StudentTracker 👉 https://www.studentclearinghouse.org/nscblog/solutions-for-summer-melt-with-studenttracker/
