To predict the demand for higher educational services in Ukraine the main indicators of the quantitative assessment of potential and real demand for higher education are grounded. The methodology of forecasting the demand for university services based on the regression analysis of parallel time series of admission volumes to Ukrainian universities and fertility rates (with consideringthe lag) is used The results of evaluation of the adequacy of a built regression model, as well as the comparison of the confidence intervals of the forecast to the real admission volumes to Ukrainian universities give grounds to conclude that the offered approach to forecasting the demand for educational services is an effective tool of strategic management in higher education.
