Re: Frostburg is in
So now that the MEC is in Maryland, it's time to look at the enrolement figures for MD public colleges and universities. The MD public system includes a couple of larger "magnet" type schools (UM-College Park and UM-University College). For the sake of comparison, I've left them out of the comparison to sort of level the playing field between the PASSHE and WV "Regional" Universities. MD has nine schools that fit roughly into the "Regional" state school classification, Bowie, Coppin, Frostburg, Salisbury, Towson, Univ Baltimore, UM-Baltimore, UM-Baltimore County and UM-Eastern Shore. Enrolment changes for the five years from 2012 to 2017 are:
Bowie State +19%
Towson State +4%
UM-Baltimore +4%
UM- Baltimore County +1%
Frostburg State +.5%
Salisbury State -3%
Univ of Baltimore -8%
Coppin State -14%
UM-Eastern Shore -19%
Fall 2017 enrolment stacks up:
Towson 19,596
UM-Balt Co 11,234
Salisbury 7,782
UM-Balt 5,774
Bowie 5,187
Frostburg 4,725
UB 2,949
UM-Eastern Shore 2,861
Coppin 2,507
Note: The above includes undergraduate only.
