29. 9/28/201129Enrollment Management|| Projected Fall Enrollment in Degree Granting Institutions by Age

30. 9/28/201130Enrollment Management|| The most elite colleges will always have…a ready supply of students. Many flagship state institutions also. For students who cannot get into elite institutions or cannot afford them, the large, nearby public university will be their ideal. But the total group that attends those types of institutions makes up far less than half of college-goers, and it is shrinking.

31. 9/28/201131Enrollment Management|| Community colleges and for-profit institutions should continue to thrive because of their reputations for convenience. The rest…can expect to compete for students based on price, convenience, and the perceived strengths of the institution.

32. 9/28/201132Enrollment Management|| Educators are increasingly finding that students want to design their own curricula and find ways to learn in their own style.

33. 9/28/201133Enrollment Management|| For profit colleges spend up to a third of their operating budgets on marketing, while traditional colleges might spend a maximum of 4 percent.

34. 9/28/201134Enrollment Management|| If colleges expect to increase attendance, they also need to look into the high school dropout population.

35. 9/28/201135Enrollment Management|| The location of a college, and the geographic spread of its influence and recruiting area, will be the most significant factor in determining its flow of enrollees in the next decade.

43. 9/28/201143Enrollment Management|| Academic Challenges Identified by Committee Need for more flexibility with adjunct faculty. “We’re already full. We can’t take any more.” Complacency. Inability to allocate/reallocate resources needed to stimulate growth. Lack of premier academic program to attract students. “Sustaining implies retention. Retention takes time and effort. There is only so much time, and only so much effort available to give.”
