Challenges and Opportunities Challenges to underrepresented freshmen recruitment In Indiana: of 4,380 senior SAT test takers in June 2007 statewide, 123 (2.8%) underrepresented students qualified for honors. In Indiana and select metropolitan areas in NY, NJ, MI, KY, OH, IL, MO: of 18,713 students from 1,504 (8.04%) underrepresented students qualified. These are highly sought after students nationwide who routinely receive full ride scholarships from in and out of state schools – competition is fierce. Opportunities Continue work with Admissions Center as well as UCOL and other units involved in outreach to underrepresented populations. Coordinate recruitment of outstanding IUPUI undergraduates using increased funding made available for Continuing Student Scholarships.
