Abstract: In this study, we examine the determinants of college student migration based on a sample of 50 states in 1992. Major findings show that the net migration rate of college students is negatively correlated with per capita personal income, tax burdens, and crime rates, but positively associated with the number of colleges and universities, expenditure per student, educational level of the population, and growth rate of employment. Past migration also significantly affects current migration. The unemployment rate and the wage rate in manufacturing are found to be insignificant.
