Fall 2002 Enrollment Update

Projection to the end of registration

(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.  Students who are not majoring in Interdisciplinary Studies but have taken courses offered by Extended Degree are counted as regular students (not on the EDP line) unless they are not currently enrolled for Fall 2002, in which case they are counted on the EDP line.  
(3) Projections are based on changes across a similar time period in the prior year.  

Highlights

• Compared to the first week last year:

  • continuing undergraduate enrollment is up 33 FTE or 1.1%.

  • the Fall 2002 Freshmen class is very close to the same size as last year's cohort, with 904 students and 821 FTE currently registered.  

  • transfer enrollments are down 131 FTE or 34%.  This decrease is intentional. 

  • the number of undergraduates re-entering the University is down 19 FTE (38 students). 

  • the number of non-degree seeking "special" undergraduates is down 11 FTE (41 students).

  • the number of graduate students is down 4 FTE (18 students).
    

• 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 0.1% 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 $380,000 short of the fall target.  The tuition target is based in part on last year's revenues, which were high because we enrolled 4% more than our 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.
