1. 2011-2012 Report on Enrollments and Impaction Academic Senate Presentation November 10, 2011 Steve Murray, Acting Vice President – Academic Affairs

2. College Year FTES (Actual vs. Target)

3. New Undergraduates *The campus was required to reduce enrollment to budgeted target beginning in 2009-10 (very limited transfers in spring 2010). ** Target revisions October 2010 resulted in opportunities for spring 2011 transfers. ***The campus is now fully impacted (all majors) at the undergraduate level.

4. Implementing CSU Impaction Criteria is Necessary to Control Enrollments by Limiting The Admission of New Students

5. Types of CSU Admissions Impaction • Campus impaction • A local area is established; • Applicants from outside that area must meet supplemental admissions criteria • Usually criteria are implemented by "level", e.g., first-time freshmen, transfers, etc. • Program impaction • Supplemental admissions criteria such as competitive admissions may be required of all applicants for specified (or all) majors/programs

6. Principles for Implementing Impaction Admission criteria will be set to the degree possible to: • Provide access to students consistent with the fiscal and campus resources required to maintain quality instruction and student and other services. • Ensure the diversity of the CSU Fullerton student body - one that reflects our region’s population. • Give admissions priority to applicants near the CSU Fullerton campus. • Give preference to students from our local admissions area. • Take into account students from outside our local admissions area, many of whom live close to campus in areas historically served by CSU Fullerton.

7. Guiding Principles for Impaction In implementing our impaction plan, the campus will attempt to adopt admissions strategies that: • do not inadvertently alter the mix of lower and upper division students and majors. • take into consideration the historical balance of freshmen and transfer students and the numbers of students enrolled in campus programs or majors.

8. Fall 2011 Admissions Outcomes • The university received 35,235 freshmen applications for 3,900 anticipated enrolled seats • We admitted 16,452 and enrolled 4,195 FTF • We denied admission to 4,652 CSU eligible FTF • The university received 16,771 upper division transfer applications for 3,900 anticipated enrolled seats • We admitted 7,447 and enrolled 3,532 UDTs • We denied admission to 3,539 CSU eligible UDTs

9. Current Admissions Areas for Campus Impaction • Admissions Areas are defined by the campus and approved by the Chancellor’s Office • First-time Freshman local admissions area = all high schools in Orange County, Walnut, Whittier, Chino Valley, Corona, Norco and Alvord School districts. • New Upper Division Transfer local admissions area is defined as all Orange County Community Colleges. • Students must have earned their majority of units from an Orange County Community College to be considered a local applicant.

26. The Future: 2012-2013

27. New Undergraduates *The campus was required to reduce enrollment to budgeted target beginning in 2009-10 (very limited transfers in spring 2010). ** Target revisions October 2010 resulted in opportunities for spring 2011 transfers. ***The campus is now fully impacted (all majors) at the undergraduate level.

28. Impaction Approach for 2012-13will be similar to 2011-12(Approved by CSU Chancellor’s Office 9/21/2010) • Campus Impaction for students outside of our local admissions area • Threshold will be higher than that required of local students under major/program impaction • Major/Program impaction for local admissions area students • Plan to apply a common threshold across all majors above CSU minimum threshold and less than the outside of local admissions area campus impaction threshold
