    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Demand for higher education services is largely driven by population dynamics, but also by employer requirements. The financial success of schools is closely related to the number of students enrolled, because many costs are fixed. Public schools have the advantage of public funding and are typically larger than private schools. Small schools can compete effectively by providing a superior education. The industry is labor-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is about $90,000.
