Note: WICHE produces separate projections for four main regions as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau, for slightly modified Western and Midwestern regions to account for North Dakota and South Dakota being member states to both the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education and Midwestern Higher Education Compact, and for the Census regional subdivisions (see this map for states by Census region and division).
