Comparison to targets:

  • UW-Green Bay does not have specific FTE or headcount targets for spring semesters.
  • Our Spring Gross Tuition target is $6,319,038.  The tuition value of current registrations is $6,414,897. Although the final budget reconcilliation will not be completed until later in the Spring, it looks like we will have a small surplus.

Comparison to last year's enrollments:

  • Although this spring's total headcount is slightly below last year (4839 versus 4877 last year), the FTE total is almost identical (3920 and 3921).
  • New freshmen enrollments are very similar to last year.
  • More transfer students have enrolled this spring compared to last spring.  The transfer FTE total is 13% higher this year than last.
  • Undergraduate reentries are down 16 FTE (31%) from last spring.
  • Spring graduate enrollments are up 33 students and 17 FTE (36%) from last spring.
  • Undergraduate specials are similar to last year.
  • The Extended Degree Program has enrolled 208 students for 69 FTE, up from 196 students and 65 FTE last year for the same reporting period.
  • Our total Spring FTE, including EDP, is 3,989.  This is 91.5% of the final Fall FTE of 4,359.

Comments about retention:

  • Last year, 80.9% of all fall registrants re-enrolled in the spring.  This year, 82.2% of fall registrants have re-enrolled for the spring.
  • Retention improvement is strongest in the new freshman class.  Last year, 88.1% of our new fall freshmen were retained in the spring.  This year the retention rate has improved to 90.6%,
