Access. Collaboration. Innovation.
Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education
“The data in WICHE's Knocking at the College Door: Projections of High School Graduates by State, Income, and Race/Ethnicity represent a gauntlet thrown down before educators and decision makers, especially in the West, where both the numbers of students and the kinds of students we’ll serve will change dramatically in the next decade.

INITIATIVES FOR
RESEARCHERS AND POLICYMAKERS
WICHE is the only organization in the West focusing exclusively on higher education. On issues ranging from access––including educating adult learners—to workforce development and from distance learning to tuition and fees, WICHE provides hard data on the trends as well as analysis. In the West, public higher education is the primary backbone of our economy, and WICHE’s policy research and collaborative programs work toward the goal of supporting the West’s citizens and its constantly evolving cultures.
