The document discusses recent enrollment trends in Massachusetts public higher education, noting that total undergraduate enrollment has declined for the third consecutive year after peaking in 2013, with community colleges seeing the largest decreases. Enrollment varies between segments, with the University of Massachusetts seeing growth from international students. The profile of new undergraduate students in 2015 is also presented, showing over half enrolled at community colleges and most were in-state, white, and female.

The document outlines a proposed Commonwealth Commitment program in Massachusetts to increase college access, affordability, and degree completion. It proposes guaranteed admission and a fixed tuition price for students who complete an associate degree through one of 16 eligible Massachusetts Transfer Pathway programs and then transfer to a Massachusetts public 4-year university. The program would start in Fall 2016 with 6 programs and expand to 16 programs in Fall 2017. It aims to incentivize full-time enrollment and help meet the state's projected shortfall of bachelor's and associate degree holders. Key aspects of the proposal discussed include eligible majors, transfer timelines, academic standards, engagement models with UMass campuses, proposed costs and discounts, and potential benefits to students and the state

3. Having the Board of Higher Education review proposals to ensure alignment with system goals and consideration of factors like regional economic needs and affordable costs.
4. Establishing a timeline for implementing the new process starting in March 2017.
