Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Jeff Brown]

  Everyone knows that college tuition has been soaring at two or three times the inflation rate, and that should allow for-profit colleges such as Strayer Education (STRA), owner of the 100-campus Strayer University and its online operation, to keep raising prices. Add intense demand from adults attracted to Strayer's curriculum, which focuses on business, accounting, information technology and similar practical subjects, and you'd expect Strayer to be printing money.

  But it's not. For 2012, revenue was $562 million, down from $627 million in 2011 and $637 million in 2010, while per-share earnings tumbled to $5.79, from $8.91 the year before. In fact, it's hard to find a financial figure that hasn't moved the wrong way. The stock has fallen from near $112 last July to $48.84. Strayer suspended its dividend in November.

  Strayer faces a lot of headwinds. College enrollment is falling, and Strayer's drifted down to 49,323 in 2012, from 56,002 in 2010. Lawmakers and regulators may clamp down on for-profit colleges that have poor graduation rates and leave students with loads of debt and jobless. Federal programs such as Pell Grants, a critical source of funding, could shrink over budget and debt concerns, and Strayer'sfuture students could become ineligible for loans if too many of their predecessors fall behind on payments. Finally, Strayer's online study program faces growing competition from traditional nonprofit institutions responding to students' demand for low cost and convenience.
