Higher education in the United States is an optional final stage of formal learning following secondary education. Higher education, also referred to as post-secondary education, third stage, third level, or tertiary education occurs most commonly at one of the 4,360 Title IV degree-granting institutions, either colleges or universities in the country.[1] These may be public universities, private universities, liberal arts colleges, community colleges, or for-profit colleges. Higher education in the United States is loosely regulated by a number of third-party organizations that vary in quality.[2]

High visibility issues include rising tuition and increasing student loan debt, greater use of online education, competency-based education, free speech and hate speech, fraternity hazing, campus sexual assault, cutbacks in state and local spending, the adjunctification of academic labor, and student poverty and hunger.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]

According to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) and National Student Clearinghouse, US college enrollment has declined since a peak in 2010-11 and is projected to continue declining or be stagnant for the next two decades.[11] [12] This decline, partially attributable to falling birth rates and fewer foreign students, amounts to 2.9 million fewer students than in 2010–11.[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]

Strong research and funding helped American universities dominate global rankings in the early 21st century, making them attractive to international students, professors and researchers.[20] Other countries, however, are now offering incentives to take away researchers [21] as funding is threatened.[22][23] As a result, the US dominance of international tables has lessened.[24]

The United States higher education system has also been blighted by fly-by-night schools, diploma mills, visa mills, and predatory for-profit colleges.[25][26][27]

According to Pew Research Center and Gallup poll surveys conducted in 2017, public opinion about US colleges has been declining, especially, but not exclusively, to Republicans and the white working class.[28][29][30][31] The higher education industry has been criticized for being unnecessarily expensive, providing a difficult-to-measure service which is seen as vital but in which providers are paid for inputs instead of outputs, and which is beset with federal regulations which drive up costs, and with payments not coming from users but from third parties.[32] In 2018, a Pew survey found that 61 percent of those polled said that US higher education was headed in the wrong direction.[33]

For generations, US education was unique its emphasis on Liberal Arts education in its higher education curriculum, but this emphasis has been waning for more than five decades, and there is growing skepticism about its utility. [34][35][36]

The US is unique in its investment in highly competitive NCAA sports, particularly in American football and basketball, with large sports stadiums and arenas.[37]
