IHL Interactive Data

Stumbled upon this the other day and figured some on here may find this interesting. Link includes in-state enrollment by county, degrees awarded by academic program, JUCO transfers etc for each MS 4 year public institution. You can sort the stats for each school.

Interesting and they did a good job putting that together. One interesting thing was the number of Illinois residents that go to JSU.

The Enrollment Fact Book is the bigger report that those numbers are pulled from. Contains a lot of good info. And they get it out pretty quickly each year, unlike MDE that takes over a full year to get info out.

Back for more? After skimming over those in-state numbers I realize why we call you "little brother".

Not surprising. Historically, the Chicago area has been one of the top places for African-Americans from Mississippi to move to. It's not uncommon for their children to come back to Mississippi years later.

One thing I thought was interesting is that MSU has almost as many students from Madison County as from Oktibbeha County.

Made this quick map from the county enrollment table.

Most of the colors should be self-explanatory, but here they are anyways: MSU - maroon, UM - red, USM - yellow, Alcorn - purple, Delta State - green, JSU - blue, MUW - dark blue, MVSU - lime. Carroll County is in gray, MSU and UM each have 59 students from that county per this report.

2 things that caught my eye:

1. We have more students from Tennessee now than OM does.
2. Someone that made a 36 on their ACT chose to go to Delta State.
