The Many Doors to IUPUI Stop Out Freshman Beginner External Transfer Intercampus Transfer
Each door should serve a role in accomplishing IUPUI’s enrollment goals and Each category of student has to be recruited and managed differently
Access Academic profile of incoming students Multidimensional diversity Affordability Need-based aid Merit aid Retention The Rankings Competing Priorities
IUPUI combines the academic strength of both Indiana University and Purdue University with the advantages of being located in a dynamic urban setting. Our unique combination of degrees and access to resources cannot be matched by any other campus in Indiana. Come see what all the excitement is about! WHERE IMPACT IS MADE Our Message
Non-Resident International Diversity Greater Indianapolis Metro Area High ability Key Recruitment Goals for Enrollment Shaping Initiative
Recruitment is any activity that will impact a student’s decision on whether or not to enroll and persist at the university. Recruiters include admissions professionals, but also current and future students, community members, faculty, alumni and university staff. A Definition of Recruitment
The Enrollment Funnel Suspects Prospects Time Applicants Admits Enrolled
Expand the top of the funnel. Examples of interventions: Purchase more prospect names Attend more recruitment events Segmented marketing of programs and scholarships Expand reach of campus events A Two-Fold Strategy
Step onto Campus 2160 attendees (+985 from 2006) 103 high schools covering the state from South Bend to Evansville
Increase the yield from one stage of the funnel to the next. Examples of interventions: Targeted scholarships Personalized “High-touch” messages focusing on the individual A Two-Fold Strategy
The state of Indiana is the 5th largest net importer of college bound students Fall 2007 IUPUI had 9.1% non-resident enrollment (Fall 2006—9%) 3.6% of undergraduate students (2006-3%) 22.6% of graduate/professional students (2006-23%) Resident students decreased by 37 (-0.1%) and Non-resident students increased by 127 (+4.9%) Facts www.indiana.edu/~urr/research/index.shtml
To increase the number of new Non-Residents to 10% of the incoming freshmen class (or 400 students), IUPUI will need to enroll 270 additional Non-Resident students (including both domestic and international). At 2006 rates, this will require 1660 additional applications and 700 more admits from Non-Resident students. This would represent a 200% increase in applications and admits from Non-Resident students. Defining the Challenge
