Undergraduate-Class and Academic-Program-Demand Practices | July 2022 | 60-Second Survey

The July 2022 60-Second Survey Survey invited undergraduate-serving members to share how their institution uses tools and data to project class and/or academic-program demand at the undergraduate level.

The purpose of the July 60 Second Report was to seek feedback from undergraduate-serving members on how—if at all—their institution uses tools and data to project class and/or academic-program demand at the undergraduate level.

Of the 331 responses, 312 were from the U.S., and 15 were from Canada; Bulgaria, Cote d'Ivoire, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates each reported one response. Regarding the control and type, public institutions accounted for 47 percent of responses, 50 percent came from private, not-for-profit institutions, and three percent came from private, proprietary institutions.

Respondents provided feedback on barriers affecting demand and identified differences between undergraduate and graduate practices.

Key Data

  • 27% do not conduct class or academic-program-demand analyses (n = 89).
  • 38% conduct class and academic-program-demand analyses (n = 127).
  • 28% conduct only class-demand analyses (n = 92).
  • 7% conduct only academic-program-demand analyses (n = 23).
