National surveys have documented the substantial movement by students across state borders to attend both public and private institutions of higher education in states other than those in which they reside. This report provides data on the number of nonresident students in Maryland public institutions, the institutions they attend, and the levels of study at which they are enrolled. It also summarizes data regarding the admission of nonresidents and residents and the tuition and fee charges for both groups. An analysis is made of the impact of nonresidents on costs, educational quality, and utilization of facilities. Also reported is a summary of the methods used by other states to deal with the enrollment of nonresidents in their public institutions. Finally, Maryland State Board for Higher Education policies are presented for enrollment of nonresident students in Maryland public institutions of higher education. The recommendations deal with the specifics of the Board's efforts to limit full-time nonresident undergraduates to 15 percent as a general standard for four-year public institutions. (Author/JMF)
