马萨诸塞州高等教育厅公布2026年秋季初步招生估算：全州公立高校本科在校生达到176231人，比2025年秋季增长2.3%，已经超过2019年秋季疫情前的172568人。这组数据于10月20日在州高等教育委员会会议上汇报。
社区学院是增长的主要来源。社区学院在校生估计为89707人，比去年增加3575人，增幅4.2%，在公立本科招生中占约一半。
州立大学板块同样回升。本科在校生估计为32345人，比去年增加699人，增幅2.2%。州立大学今年新招的转学生达到2882人，比去年增加411人，增幅16.6%，是各板块中涨幅最明显的一项。
University of Massachusetts 四个校区的本科在校生估计为54179人，比去年微降0.6%。州高等教育厅表示，UMass 板块在多年稳定增长后延续企稳走势。
汇报同时更新了学生学业进展指标。州高等教育厅2023年6月为五项学生成功指标设定了2033年目标，本次公布的六年完成率反映2019年秋季入学的学生截至2025年6月的完成情况。州政府表示，招生回升之后，仍需要持续投入来维持并加快学生学业进展的改善。
Massachusetts Public Colleges Enroll 176,231 Undergraduates in Fall 2026, Up 2.3% and Above Pre-Pandemic Level
Preliminary fall 2026 estimates from the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education put undergraduate enrollment at the state's public colleges and universities at 176,231 students, an increase of 2.3% over fall 2025. The total has now exceeded the fall 2019 pre-pandemic level of 172,568. The figures were presented at the October 20 meeting of the state Board of Higher Education.
Community colleges account for most of the growth. Their enrollment reached an estimated 89,707 students, up 3,575 students, or 4.2%, from fall 2025, representing about half of all public undergraduate enrollment in the state.
State universities also grew. Undergraduate enrollment there rose to an estimated 32,345 students, up 699, or 2.2%, from the previous fall. The state universities enrolled an estimated 2,882 new transfer students, an increase of 411, or 16.6%, the sharpest rise among the segments.
Undergraduate enrollment across the four University of Massachusetts campuses was an estimated 54,179 students, a decrease of 0.6% from fall 2025. The department described the UMass segment as continuing a trend of stabilization after years of steady growth.
The presentation also updated student success measures. The Board set targets in June 2023 for five student success metrics, to be achieved by 2033. The latest six-year completion rates reflect students who entered in fall 2019, measured through June 2025, and the department said continued investment is needed to sustain and accelerate progress in student success.
