(1) EDP data cover the enrollment period from 1/1/2004 through today, including all EDP classes in the Spring 2004 and Summer 2004 sessions. Students taking both campus classes and EDP classes  are not double counted in the CAMPUS TOTAL or GRAND TOTAL lines.
(2) Other students are those served through Outreach and Extension, Study Abroad, and Grand-funded programs.  Because those students' education is funded differently from EDP and campus-based programs, they are not considered as part of our enrollment target.  They are sometimes called "non-FTE-generating" students because their enrollments have no impact on the campus FTE targets.  Many non-FTE generating enrollments will flow in throughout the semester.

Highlights

  • Our Fall 2004 total FTE target is 4,387.  Overall, the University plans to enroll approximately the same number of students for Fall 2004 as were enrolled for Fall 2003.  At this time, continuing undergraduate enrollments are slightly lower than enrollment modeling projected, but transfer student enrollments are coming in higher.  Projections for each enrollment category will be presented starting next week.

  • Our tuition revenue target for 2004-05 is approximately the same as last year, and will be adjusted when tuition rates are set in July.  Non-resident student enrollment will have an impact on our ability to reach revenue goals.  Last year we registered 116 full-time non-resident undergraduate continuing and transfer students.  At this time 97 full-time non-resident undergraduates have registered for Fall 2004 compared to 112 last year at this time.   The annual revenue impact of a 15 student decline in non-residents is close to $150,000.

  • Approximately 79% of last fall's new full-time freshmen and 74% of last fall's new full-time transfer students have registered for Fall 2004.  Across all class levels, there are 438 currently-enrolled Spring 2004 students who should have registered for future terms by now and have not.
