1. Making Enrollment Management Policy Work December 1, 2009

2. The Usual Goals of Enrollment Management in the CSU Achieve the funded enrollment targets (FTES) Maintain or increase diversity Facilitate Graduation

3. Enrollment Management is about more than ADMISSIONS! Enrollment management is about optimizing resources to in a timely fashion to produce graduates, who are so pleased with their college experience, that they : Praise their alma mater in words and deeds, Contribute to the annual fund annually, Encourage others to attend the university, and finally Include the university in their will.

4. Achieving Enrollment targets involves the effective interplay of : Recruitment/outreach Timely admissions Timely financial aid Yield activities Retention, e.g. advising Graduation Replacement of graduates

5. Issues that often “overlay” enrollment management Residence hall occupancy rates Debt Service Ethnic and SES Diversity Distribution across academic units Societal/economic needs Academic “inventory control”

6. Recent Additions to the CSU Enrollment Management “toolbox” Reduction in exceptional admissions Consideration of Dual admissions System-wide Impaction An option for currently un-impacted campuses Approved for College Year 2009-2010 and probably until state funding of demand resumes

7. So, You Think You Want to Use “Systemwide” impaction for Fall 2009! Define a local area (by high schools or CCs); Separate timely applications into two “piles”; Provisionally admit local area applicants, who meet CSU minima; Place other applicants in a wait list and admit as needed to achieve target, and Re-route un-accomodated, but admissible applicants to open CSU campuses

8. Our Colleagues Share re Local areas and wait-listing Sandra Cook – SDSU “Route 56 is the new Route 66” Darren Bush/Nathan Evans - CSUSM “Wait listing” for Enrollment Planning Precision Jane Sweetland/Ginger Reyes- CSU CI “Wait listing”: What we learned last year”

9. Newly emphasized CSU EM tools Rescission of admissions offers Deposits and/or mandatory orientation Coordination with housing Yield management Return of the “Forbidden Four” Admissions Priorities (Ed Code 66202) “Disquals” as per EO 1038

10. Regional Team Tasks Each Campus List as least one (but no more than two) specific actions, which will manage FTES enrollments down/up to funded targets for Fall 2009. 1) ? 2) ? Each Region Describe at least one action that will be taken by the team to facilitate each team member/campus’ achieving (but not exceeding) its funded targets for Fall 2009. 1)
