Transformation • From • Direct admission process • Use of minimum criteria • Sole goal - meeting enrollment FTES targets • To • Finding the “right students” in the “right place” to enhance student success
Enrollment Management Then and Now Then: • Admission based on system-level criteria • All applicants who met criteria were admitted at same time • Programs with high demand could limit admissions (impaction) Automatic process with little engagement
Enrollment Management Then and Now Impaction • Invoked when more applications are received than can be accommodated • Two levels • Campus Impaction • Program Impaction • Higher admission criteria (coursework, GPA, SAT) are applied • Additional information may be required
Enrollment ManagementThen and Now Now: • Campus impacted • 14 programs impacted • Non-impacted programs submit suggested enrollment limits • Students admitted in waves in order of admission criteria
