Miami-Dade County's 76 universities admitted an estimated 42.3% of applicants for fall 2022, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. Of those who were admitted, 20.7% enrolled.

Of the 76 institutions in the county, 11 provided detailed enrollment data at the time, including University of Miami, SABER College and Albizu University-Miami.

At least 99,866 people applied to Miami-Dade County colleges in the 2022-23 school year.

NCES data shows that among them, around 158,572 students enrolled in the universities, including 133,302 in undergraduate and 25,270 in graduate programs. In total 5.2% of undergraduates transferred from another college or university.

The reported undergraduate student body is comprised mostly of Hispanic (64%) and Black or African American (13.9%) students.

Among the institutions that provided disclosed enrollment data, Florida International University stood out with the largest enrollment at the time, welcoming 55,609 students.

U.S. college enrollment has been in a downward trend since peaking at around 18.1 million students in 2010. Recent increases offered some relief, but experts project a steeper decline in 2025.

This decline is likely due to two main factors. First, the pool of young adults is shrinking as birth rates have fallen nearly 23% between 2007 and 2022. Second, the rising cost of higher education, including skyrocketing student loan debt. A 2023 Wall Street Journal report shows that more than half of Americans think a four-year degree is not worth the cost.

NCES shows that enrollment data was not available for 10 institutions in Miami-Dade County, including Florida National University Training Center, Keiser University- Miami and Celebrity School of Beauty - Hialeah.

Some educational data is based on estimates. Shifting demographics among student populations can sometimes result in gender totals which do not equal 100%.
