Abstract | The rapid extension of student numbers has been the key phenomenon in the development of mass higher education systems in both Europe and North America. This expansion has substantially widened the social base of these systems in terms of gender and ethnicity, although less so in terms of social class. However, expansion alone has not been the only strategy pursued to widen access to higher education. Affirmative action and more targeted widening participation policies have also been employed. Three scenarios for the future of access are now possible - much slower growth rates leading to "steady state" system; continuing expansion at similar rates to the past; and the transformation of existing higher education systems into more open and inclusive lifelong learning systems.
