Midland County's three universities admitted an estimated 80% of applicants for fall 2022, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. Of those who were admitted, 23% enrolled.

Of the three institutions in the county, Northwood University was the only one that provided detailed enrollment data at the time.

At least 1,368 people applied to Midland County colleges in the 2022-23 school year.

NCES data shows that among them, around 2,275 students enrolled in the universities, including 1,969 in undergraduate and 306 in graduate programs. In total 12.6% of undergraduates transferred from another college or university.

The reported undergraduate student body is comprised mostly of white (68.8%) and students of unknown ethinicity (8.4%).

Among the institutions that provided disclosed enrollment data, Northwood University stood out with the largest enrollment at the time, welcoming 2,246 students.

U.S. college enrollment has been in a downward trend since peaking at around 18.1 million students in 2010. Recent increases offered some relief, but experts project a steeper decline in 2025.

This decline is likely due to two main factors. First, the pool of young adults is shrinking as birth rates have fallen nearly 23% between 2007 and 2022. Second, the rising cost of higher education, including skyrocketing student loan debt. A 2023 Wall Street Journal report shows that more than half of Americans think a four-year degree is not worth the cost.

NCES shows that enrollment data was not available for Davenport University-Midland Location in Midland County.

Some educational data is based on estimates. Shifting demographics among student populations can sometimes result in gender totals which do not equal 100%.
