(1) Tuition value estimates are based on students' academic levels, credit loads and residencies and 2002/03 tuition rates.
(2) EDP data come from June 28, 2002 and cover the enrollment period from 1/1/2002 through 6/30/2002.
(3) Projections are based on changes across a similar time period in the prior year.  

Highlights

  • Compared to opening day last year:

    • continuing undergraduate enrollment is up 15 FTE or 0.5%.

    • the Fall 2002 Freshmen class is very close to the same size as last year's cohort, with 901 students and 826 FTE currently registered.  

    • transfer enrollments are down 130 FTE or 33%.  This decrease is intentional. 

    • the number of undergraduates re-entering the University is down 21 FTE (39 students). 

    • the number of non-degree seeking "special" undergraduates is down 7 FTE (30 students).

    • the number of graduate students is down 3 FTE (9 students).

  • Our tuition revenue target for 2002-03 has not been finalized, but the fall target for gross tuition revenues will be approximately $8.5M.  Current gross tuition charges for Fall 2002 are $8.1M.  Last year, tuition revenues grew 0.6% between this point and the end of registration.  If a similar trend was followed this year, we would expect fall tuition revenues to grow to approximately $8.2M, leaving us approximately $350,000 short of the fall target.  

  • Our Fall 2002 target is 4,357 FTE.  It has remained the same for three years.  Last year we enrolled about 4% more FTE than the target.  UW-Green Bay has achieved its FTE target for Fall 2002.
