East side (Verde Valley) enrollment using credit hours increased by 703, out-of-County shows decline
As noted in an earlier post, Yavapai Community College analyzed enrollment trends over the past four years of students taking credit classes using credit hours and zip codes and reported the results of the analysis at the March Governing Board meeting. The analysis included students taking face-to-face classes and those taking classes on-line. It found that on the west side of the County there was a drop of 2,767 student credit hours in the last four years enrolling for fall courses (35,504 down to 32,737).
However, enrollment of students on the east side of the County (Sedona, Cottonwood, Camp Verde, et. al.) for fall courses increased by 703 student credit hours over the past four years (8,900 up to 9,603).
Out-of-County students who take most classes on-line showed a decline in credit hours.
