Comparison to targets:

  • UW-Green Bay does not have specific FTE or headcount targets for spring semesters.  We anticipate needing about 4000 FTE (92% of the Fall goal of 4357 FTE) in order to achieve our tuition revenue goals.  Including EDP, our Spring 2002 enrollment total is currently 4173 FTE.  This is an all-time high for Spring FTE enrollments at UW-Green Bay.
  • The value of current registrations is $7,145,235, about $120,000 over the Spring Gross Tuition target.  

Comparison to last year's enrollments:
  • Continuing undergraduate enrollments are larger primarily because we enrolled more students in Fall 2001 than Fall 2000. Other enrollment categories have similar enrollments as last year. 
  • 90.5% of the Fall 2001 New Full-time Freshmen have enrolled for Spring 2002, compared to 89.1% last year (a 1.4% retention improvement). 

  • There is a 9% decline in FTE enrollment by non-resident students this spring compared to last spring.  

    •

    Looking to the future:

    • The Admission's Office will stop accepting applications for Fall 2002 New Freshmen on February 15. This is the same date we closed for admissions last year.  As in the past, space will be made available for exceptional students, whose applications will be individually reviewed.  
    • The Admission's Office will continue accepting applications for Fall 2002 Transfers at this time. However, it is becoming increasingly likely that UW-Green Bay will stop accepting transfer applications possibly as early as March, approximately four months earlier than last year.
