In its first Signature Report, \"National Postsecondary Enrollment Trends: Before, During, and After the Great Recession,\" the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center documented a period of accelerated growth in community college enrollments that peaked in 2009-10. In this follow-up analysis, we see that the enrollment increases were followed by a corresponding increase in the number of degrees awarded through 2010-11.<\/p>

Growth in the number of degrees awarded to adult learners outpaced that of traditional-age students in the three years following the economic downturn. From 2007-08 to 2010-11, the number of degrees awarded to students aged 25 and older increased by 22 percent, compared to 17 percent for those under age 25.<\/p>

The number of degrees awarded to each age group decreased in 2011-12, but totals remained well above pre-recession levels.<\/p>
