Tuition revenue is recognized in the quarter of instruction. Tuition revenue is shown net of any
refunds, withdrawals, corporate discounts, scholarships and employee tuition discounts. At the time
of registration, a liability (unearned tuition) is recorded for academic services to be provided
and a tuition receivable is recorded for the portion of the tuition not paid upfront in cash.
Revenues also include application fees, commencement fees, placement test fees, withdrawal fees,
textbook-related income and other income which are recognized
when incurred.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings
per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur assuming conversion or exercise of all
dilutive unexercised stock options and restricted stock. The dilutive effect of stock options was
determined using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the proceeds received
from the exercise of stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service not yet
recognized by the Company, and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional
paid-in capital when the stock options become deductible for income tax purposes are all assumed to
be used to repurchase shares of the Company&#146;s common stock. Stock options are not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share when the stock option exercise price of an individual
grant exceeds the average market price for the period. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, all issued and
outstanding stock options were included in the calculation.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Stock-based Compensation</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In January&nbsp;2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;123(R),
<I>Share-based Payment, </I>(&#147;SFAS 123(R)&#148;) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation
expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee
stock options and employee stock purchases related to the Company&#146;s Employee Stock Purchase Plan,
based on estimated fair values. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2008 and 2009 is based on
awards ultimately expected to vest and, therefore, has been adjusted for estimated forfeitures.
SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in
subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures are based on
historical experience.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date
of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company has elected to estimate fair value using the
Black-Scholes option pricing valuation model. The value of the portion of the award that is
ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the
Company&#146;s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company&#146;s determination of fair value of
share-based payment awards is affected by the Company&#146;s stock price as well as assumptions
regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not
limited to, the Company&#146;s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual
and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Stock-based Compensation Plans</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In July&nbsp;1996, the Company&#146;s stockholders approved 1,500,000 shares of common stock for grants under
the Company&#146;s 1996 Stock Option Plan. This plan was amended by the stockholders at the May&nbsp;2001
Annual Stockholders&#146; Meeting and at the May&nbsp;2005 Annual Stockholders&#146; Meeting to increase the
number of shares authorized for issuance thereunder by 1,000,000 and 500,000, respectively (as
amended, the &#147;Plan&#148;). A total of 3,000,000 shares have therefore been approved for grants under the
Plan. The Plan was again amended at the May&nbsp;2006 Annual Stockholders&#146; Meeting to authorize a
one-time exchange of stock options for restricted stock by employees (excluding the five highest
compensated executive officers) and to permit restricted stock and cash awards to qualify for
favorable tax treatment under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan provides for
the grant of options intended to qualify as incentive stock options, and also provides for the
grant of non-qualifying options and restricted stock to employees, officers and directors of the
Company. Options and restricted stock may be granted to eligible employees, officers or directors
of the Company at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Vesting provisions are also at the
discretion of the Board of Directors. Options may be granted at option prices based at or above the
fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. The maximum term of the options granted under
the Plan is ten years. In 2006, the Company determined that grants of restricted stock are
generally preferable to grants of stock options. For all grants of restricted shares made after
December&nbsp;31, 2008, dividends paid on those shares of restricted stock are subject to forfeiture
should those shares not ultimately vest or should performance criteria, if applicable, not be met.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In May&nbsp;1998, the Company adopted the Strayer Education, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(&#147;ESPP&#148;). Under the ESPP, eligible employees may purchase shares of the Company&#146;s common
stock, subject to certain limitations, at 90% of its market value at the date of
purchase. Purchases are limited to 10% of an employee&#146;s eligible compensation. The aggregate
number of shares of common stock that may be made available for purchase by participating
employees under the ESPP is 2,500,000 shares.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In February&nbsp;2009, the Company&#146;s Board of Directors approved grants of 253,142 shares of
restricted stock to certain employees. Robert Silberman, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, was granted 183,680 of these shares of restricted stock, none of which vest until
February&nbsp;10, 2019, subject to the satisfaction of certain academic and financial performance
criteria. Karl McDonnell, President and Chief Operating Officer, was granted 45,920 of
these shares of restricted stock, none of which vest until February&nbsp;10, 2014, subject to the

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">At March&nbsp;31, 2009, most of the Company&#146;s excess cash was invested in tax-exempt money market
funds and a diversified, short-term, investment grade, tax-exempt bond fund to minimize the
Company&#146;s principal risk and to benefit from the tax efficiency of the fund&#146;s underlying
securities. The investments are considered &#147;available-for-sale&#148; as they are not held for
trading and will not be held to maturity, in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;115, <I>Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities. </I>The Company records the net unrealized gains and losses for changes in fair
value as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders&#146; equity.
Realized gains and losses from the sale of marketable securities are based on the specific
identification method.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In conjunction with the opening of new campuses, the Company, in some instances, was
reimbursed by the lessors for improvements made to the leased properties. In accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) Technical Bulletin No.&nbsp;88-1, these
improvements were capitalized as leasehold improvements and a long-term liability was
established for the reimbursements. The leasehold improvements
and the long-term liability will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the corresponding
lease terms, which range from five to ten years. As of December&nbsp;31, 2008 and March&nbsp;31, 2009,
the Company had deferred lease incentives of $4.5&nbsp;million and $4.2&nbsp;million, respectively.

the initial term of a lease. The difference between the rent payment and the straight-line
rent expense is recorded as a long-term liability. As of December&nbsp;31, 2008 and March&nbsp;31,

2007, the Company realized a gain of $2.8&nbsp;million before tax, which was deferred and is
being recognized over the 10-year lease term. The non-current portion of this gain, which
was $2.1&nbsp;million and $2.0&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2008 and March&nbsp;31, 2009, respectively, is

Statement No.&nbsp;109 (&#147;SFAS 109&#148;) on January&nbsp;1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN
48, no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits was
recognized. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at the adoption date of January&nbsp;1, 2008
and at March&nbsp;31, 2009 are immaterial. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related
to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of March&nbsp;31, 2009, the amount of
accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions was immaterial. The tax years 2005-2008
remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is
subject.

Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;157 (''SFAS 157&#146;&#146;), <I>Fair Value Measurements</I>, which
defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures
regarding fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements
but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting
pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007.
The adoption of SFAS 157, effective January&nbsp;1, 2008, did not have a material impact on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In February&nbsp;2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;159, ''<I>The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities</I>&#146;&#146; (''SFAS 159&#146;&#146;). This
statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other
items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This
statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate
comparisons between entities that choose different measurement
attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for the first
fiscal year beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 159, effective January&nbsp;1,
2008, did not have a material effect on the Company&#146;s financial position or results of
operations.

and a 5% tuition increase at the beginning of 2009. Income from operations was $47.6
million for the first quarter of 2009, an increase of 34% compared to the same period in
2008. Net income was $29.1&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009, an increase of 24%
compared to the same period in 2008. Diluted earnings per share was $2.07 in the first
quarter of 2009 compared to $1.64 in the same period in 2008, an increase of 26%.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><B>Three Months Ended March&nbsp;31, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended March&nbsp;31, 2008</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Enrollment. </I>Enrollment at Strayer University for the 2009 winter term, which began January&nbsp;12,
2009 and ended March&nbsp;30, 2009, increased 22% to 45,697 students compared to 37,323 students
for the same term in 2008. Across the Strayer University campus network, new student
enrollments increased 20% and continuing student
enrollments increased 23%. Global online enrollments increased 47%, while students taking 100%
of their classes online (including campus based students) increased 25%. The total number of
students taking any courses online (including students at brick and mortar campuses taking at
least one online course) in the 2009 winter term increased 24% to 32,771.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Revenues</I>. Revenues increased 28% to $124.5&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009 from $97.1
million in the first quarter of 2008, principally due to a 22% increase in enrollment and a
5% tuition increase at the beginning of 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Instruction and educational support expenses. </I>Instruction and educational support expenses
increased $7.5&nbsp;million, or 23%, to $39.1&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009 from $31.6
million in the first quarter of 2008. This increase was principally due to direct costs
necessary to support the increase in student enrollments, including faculty compensation,
related academic staff salaries and campus facility costs, which increased $2.3&nbsp;million,
$1.6&nbsp;million, and $1.9&nbsp;million, respectively. Instruction and educational support expenses
as a percentage of revenues decreased to 31.4% in the first quarter of 2009 from 32.6% in
the first quarter of 2008, largely attributable to faculty costs growing at a lower rate
than tuition revenue.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Selling and promotion expenses. </I>Selling and promotion expenses increased $4.8&nbsp;million, or 32%, to
$19.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009 from $15.1&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2008.
This increase was principally due to the direct costs required to build the Strayer
University brand and attract prospective students, and the addition of admissions personnel,
particularly at new campuses. Selling and promotion expenses as a percentage of revenues
increased to 16.0% in the first quarter of 2009 from 15.5% in the first quarter of 2008,
which was largely attributable to the opening of three new campuses for spring term 2009
compared to two new campuses for the spring term in the prior year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>General and administration expenses. </I>General and administration expenses increased $3.1&nbsp;million,
or 21%, to $17.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2009 from $14.8&nbsp;million in the first
quarter of 2008. This increase was principally due to increased employee salaries and
higher bad debt expense, which increased $2.2&nbsp;million and $1.5&nbsp;million, respectively, partly
offset by lower stock-based compensation which decreased $0.8&nbsp;million. General and
administration expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 14.4% in the first quarter
of 2009 from 15.2% in the first quarter of 2008 primarily due to the decrease in stock-based
compensation expense.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Income from operations. </I>Income from operations increased $12.0&nbsp;million, or 34%, to $47.6&nbsp;million
in the first quarter of 2009 from $35.6&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2008, due to the
aforementioned factors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Investment and other income. </I>Investment and other income decreased $1.5&nbsp;million, or 76%, to $0.5
million in the first quarter of 2009 from $2.0&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2008. The
decrease was principally due to lower investment yields and a lower average cash balance, as
well as a gain on sale of marketable securities of $0.8&nbsp;million recognized in 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><I>Provision for income taxes. </I>Income tax expense increased $4.9&nbsp;million, or 35%, to $19.0&nbsp;million
in the first quarter of 2009 from $14.1&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2008,
primarily due to the increase in income before taxes attributable to the factors discussed
above. The Company&#146;s effective tax rate was 39.6% for the first quarter of 2009 compared to
37.4% for the first quarter of 2008. The increase in the Company&#146;s effective tax rate is
largely attributable to lower income from tax-exempt securities in 2009.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">At March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $84.0
million compared to $107.3&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2008 and $118.9&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31,
2008. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, most of the Company&#146;s excess cash was invested in tax-exempt money
market funds and a diversified, short-term, investment grade, tax-exempt bond fund to
minimize the Company&#146;s principal risk and to benefit from the tax efficiency of the funds&#146;
underlying securities. As of March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company had a total of $51.5&nbsp;million
invested in the short-term, tax-exempt bond fund. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, the 677 issues in this
fund had an average credit rating of AA, an average maturity of 1.2&nbsp;years, an average
duration of 1.1&nbsp;years, as well as an average yield to maturity of 1.9%. The Company had no
debt as of December&nbsp;31, 2008 or March&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company reported $47.1&nbsp;million net cash from
operating activities compared to $34.2&nbsp;million for the same period in 2008. Capital
expenditures were $6.6&nbsp;million for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2009 compared to $5.1&nbsp;million
for the same period in 2008. During the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company paid a
regular, quarterly common stock dividend of $7.1&nbsp;million ($0.50 per share). The Company
also received $1.7&nbsp;million upon the exercise of 20,000 stock options. During the three
months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company invested $60.1&nbsp;million to repurchase 348,085 shares
of common stock at an average price of $172.57 per share as part of a previously announced
common stock repurchase authorization. The Company&#146;s remaining authorization for common
stock repurchases was approximately $10.1&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In the first quarter of 2009, bad debt expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.2% compared
to 2.5% for the same period in 2008. Days sales outstanding, adjusted to exclude tuition
receivable related to future quarters, was 15&nbsp;days at the end of the first quarter of 2009
compared to 12&nbsp;days at the end of the first quarter of 2008.
