Company&#146;s revenues during the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2009 consisted of tuition revenue. 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>

<!-- xbrl,body -->
<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 applicable period. Diluted
earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur assuming vesting, 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 June&nbsp;30, 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 and six months ended June&nbsp;30, 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 equity compensation plan. This plan was amended by the stockholders at the May
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 granting of stock options as well as restricted stock to employees, officers and 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 began granting shares of restricted stock
instead of stock options. The Company believes that annual grants of restricted stock are
generally preferable as an equity compensation vehicle and more
suited to the Company&#146;s long-term business
model than larger, sporadic grants of stock options. This is so because shares of restricted stock
have an intrinsic value when granted (as opposed to options) and therefore, the employee holding
restricted stock shares a downside risk to such value with other owners of the Company&#146;s common
stock.
</DIV>


<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;).

<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

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 satisfaction of the same performance criteria that
apply to Mr.&nbsp;Silberman&#146;s grant. The remaining 23,542 shares of restricted stock, which vest over a
3-5&nbsp;year period, were granted to certain employees pursuant to the Company&#146;s existing annual equity
compensation plan. Mr.&nbsp;Silberman and Mr.&nbsp;McDonnell do not participate in the employee annual
equity compensation plan. The Company&#146;s stock price closed at $217.77 on the date of these
restricted stock grants.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">In April&nbsp;2009, the Company awarded a total of 6,770 shares of restricted stock. These shares were
awarded to various non-employee members of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors, as part of the
Company&#146;s annual director compensation program, as well as to a recently-hired corporate officer.
The Company&#146;s stock price closed at $175.82 on the date of this restricted stock grant.

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. As of
June&nbsp;30, 2009, the Company had a total of $51.8&nbsp;million invested in the short-term tax-exempt bond
fund. 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.
115, <I>Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. </I>The Company records the net

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 June&nbsp;30, 2009, the Company had deferred lease incentives of $4.5&nbsp;million

Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;157 (&#145;&#145;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 the Company&#146;s consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flow.

Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities</I>&#146;&#146; (&#145;&#145;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.

</I>Enrollment at Strayer University for the 2009 spring term, which began April&nbsp;13, 2009
and ended June&nbsp;29, 2009, increased 22% to 46,038 students compared to 37,733 students for the same

in the second quarter of 2008, principally due to a 22% increase in enrollment and a 5% tuition
increase implemented at the beginning of 2009.

increased $8.0&nbsp;million, or 24%, to $40.9&nbsp;million in the second quarter of 2009 from $32.9&nbsp;million
in the second 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 $2.5&nbsp;million, $1.8&nbsp;million, and $1.8&nbsp;million,
respectively. Instruction and educational support expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased
to 32.5% in the second quarter of 2009 from 33.6% in the second quarter of 2008 largely
attributable to faculty costs growing at a lower rate than tuition revenue.

2008. This increase was principally due to the direct costs required to build the Strayer
University brand and to attract prospective students, and the addition of admissions personnel,
particularly at new campuses. Marketing and admissions expenses as a percentage of revenues
decreased to 15.9% in the second quarter of 2009 from 17.1% in the second quarter of 2008.

35%, to $19.9&nbsp;million in the second quarter of 2009 from $14.7&nbsp;million in the second quarter of
2008. This increase was principally due to increased employee compensation and higher bad debt
expense, which increased $1.1&nbsp;million and $2.5&nbsp;million, respectively. General and administration
expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 15.8% in the second quarter of 2009 from 15.0% in
the second quarter of 2008 primarily due to bad debt expense, partly offset by lower stock-based
compensation expense.
