-
An unduplicated headcount of students enrolled in college-level credit courses in Florida's community colleges is provided as taken at the end of the initial drop-add period in fall 1985. The first portion of the report provides data showing 5-year (fall 1981 through fall 1985) statewide trends in actual opening fall credit enrollments. Figures and tables focus on statewide enrollment by student status (i.e., first-time-in-college, returning, or transfer students); by full-/part-time status; by class (i.e., freshman, sophomore, or unclassified); by program (i.e., advanced and professional, vocational, and other); by race; and by sex. Next, tables provide fall 1985 data by campus. Highlighted findings indicate the following: (1) fall enrollments increased in 1985 for the first time since 1983; (2) for the 5 years beginning with 1981, there was an overall decline of 958 students or 0.4%; (3) returning students represented the largest group of community college students, accounting for 67.3% of the total in 1985; (4) first-time-in-college students showed an 11.9% decline since 1981; (5) the number of full-time students decreased by 5.2% over the 5-year period, while the number of part-time students increased by the same percent; and (6) an analysis of enrollments by race and sex showed that there were slight decreases among non-resident aliens and whites, while other ethnic groups showed annual increases or remained fairly constant; and that female students continued to comprise the larger percentage of total students.
