摘要

面对州政府不断减少的支持,许多大学已经根据本科课程引入了差别定价,作为全面学费上涨的替代方案。这种做法使价格与教学成本和学生毕业后的支付能力更紧密地联系在一起。利用大学间交错采用这些政策,本文发现差异定价确实改变了学生对专业的分配,尽管不同领域的异质性可能表明,在特别超额申请的领域(如护理),供应反应更大。有证据表明,在某些领域已经被低估的学生群体尤其受到新的定价政策的影响。价格似乎确实是一个政策杠杆,州政府可以通过它来改变他们正在用公立高等教育系统培训的劳动力的领域构成。

Differential Pricing in Undergraduate Education: Effects on Degree Production by Field
In the face of declining state support, many universities have introduced differential pricing by undergraduate program as an alternative to across-the-board tuition increases. This practice aligns price more closely with instructional costs and students' ability to pay post-graduation. Exploiting the staggered adoption of these policies across universities, this paper finds that differential pricing does alter the allocation of students to majors, though heterogeneity across fields may suggest a greater supply response in particularly oversubscribed fields such as nursing. There is some evidence that student groups already underrepresented in certain fields are particularly affected by the new pricing policies. Price does appear to be a policy lever through which state governments can alter the field composition of the workforce they are training with the public higher education system.
