Abstract
Maintaining Access While the official number of first-year students registered at colleges and universities is not yet available, the COU expected universities to enroll the usual proportion of applicants from Ontario’s high schools—a remarkable achievement. In June 2003, close to 72,000 students had accepted positions in the province’s universities, and 42,600 confirmed they would attend firstyear classes at one of the community colleges. Ontario’s double cohort is a fascinating case study in the politics of higher education. While governments frequently come under pressure to maintain or increase access, few are forced to address these concerns in the context of a media flurry focusing on the countdown of a very public timeline to address the needs of a specific cohort.
