You might edit the url to remove the source. Anything after the word freshman is tracking to a FB post.

This is a better link. https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/03/31/college-enrollment-down-recruitment-freshmen/

This has been going on for years now. What I found interesting was this table:

Alaska 8,835
West Virginia 8,733
District of Columbia 8,636
New York 8,555
Nevada 8,548
Idaho 8,000
New Mexico 7,975
North Carolina 7,389
Utah 7,387
Montana 7,265
Florida 6,366
Wyoming 6,097

Some deals to be had for OOS students if one could swing an OOS tuition waiver through scholarships and such.

ETA: This is just a cross-post of the Washington Post article in the OP.

Can you tell me what these numbers represent? The original article is behind a paywall and the sfgate version of the article doesn’t have the table, as far as I can see.

In-state prices, in dollars, for 2021-2022 before aid and discounts
