The following is an Alphabetical listing of all the Community Colleges in the United States of America. Community Colleges operate under a policy of “open admission” which allows  anyone with a high school diploma or GED to attend, regardless of their previous academic status or college entrance exam scores. Prospective students still have to take placement tests before enrolling at the community college of their choice. In states like California and Minnesota, students who have reached the age of 18 are not required to have completed secondary (high school) education. They just need to show an “ability to benefit” from a college’s educational program. Also, under certain circumstances community colleges will also accept high school students or dropouts who never finished High school.

College and University Education Statistics:

Enrollment

In fall 2016, some 20.5 million students are expected to attend American colleges and universities, constituting an increase of about 5.2 million since fall 2000.

Females are expected to account for the majority of college students: about 11.7 million females will attend in fall 2016, compared with 8.8 million males. Also, more students are expected to attend full time than part time (an estimated 12.7 million, compared with about 7.9 million).

About 7.2 million students will attend 2-year institutions and 13.3 million will attend 4-year institutions in fall 2016. Some 17.5 million students are expected to enroll in undergraduate programs and about 3.0 million will enroll in postbaccalaureate programs.

Increases in the traditional college-age population and rising enrollment rates have contributed to the increase in college enrollment. Between 2000 and 2014, the 18- to 24-year-old population rose from approximately 27.3 million to nearly 31.5 million. The percentage of 18- to 24-year-olds enrolled in college also was higher in 2014 (40.0 percent) than in 2000 (35.5 percent).

In 2014, there were about 12.0 million college students under age 25 and 8.2 million students 25 years old and over. The numbers of younger and older students increased between 2000 and 2014.

Increasing numbers and percentages of Black and Hispanic students are attending college. Between 2000 and 2014, the percentage of college students who were Black rose from 11.7 to 14.5 percent, and the percentage of students who were Hispanic rose from 9.9 to 16.5 percent. Also, the percentage of Hispanic 18- to 24-year-olds enrolled in college increased from 21.7 percent in 2000 to 34.7 percent in 2014; the percentage of Black 18- to 24-year-olds enrolled did not change measurably during this period.
