Georgaphic origins or permanent residence of all first-time credit course students attending the SUNY institutions during the 1973 fall term are surveyed. This report includes eight tables of basic data in relation to the four coordinating areas of New York state. These areas offer a policy and planning framework for meeting the educational needs of the citizens of any given area of the state while maximizing the efficient use of the existing academic resources in a given area. Tables are included that list the State University institutions in each area and show the permanent residence distribution of the full-time first-time students by area as a percent of total enrollment. During the 1970's, the percentage of college-going within New York state students served by the State University has steadily increased, even when the college-going rate itself has remained stable or declined. Some limitations of the study are cited with regard to data collection procedures. (LBH)
