Abstract | As Minnesota's state population changes, the undergraduate student population is also changing. This report is designed to present information about the characteristics of undergraduates who attend post-secondary institutions in Minnesota, based on data from a 2004 national survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Education. The report provides estimates for enrollment by institutional type, age, dependency status, racial and ethnic background, parents' characteristics, work patterns while enrolled and income distributions for these categories. This report offers a more descriptive overview of the undergraduate population in Minnesota than previously available. The following are appended: (1) definition of attendance status and definition of independent status from the NPSAS (National Postsecondary Student Aid Survey); and (2) tables of the estimates present in the report with their standard errors. (Contains 22 figures, 14 tables, and 18 endnotes.) (ERIC). |
