Highlights

All currently enrolled students have had a chance to register for Spring 2003. Last year, the total FTE increased 7.4% after this point in the enrollment cycle. If a similar pattern is followed this year, we will enroll 4120 FTE. We may grow slightly less this year, for two reasons. First, students were allowed to register more rapidly, so the cycle may be different. Second, we have a large senior class and are projecting a 10% increase in the number of December graduates.
Our tuition revenue target for Spring 2003 will be about $7.9M. Last year, tuition revenues increased 9.8% after this time. If a similar pattern is followed this year, we will gross approximately $7.5M in tuition revenue this spring.
While we do not have a specific FTE target for spring terms, we usually expect to register about 90%-92% as many Full-time Equivalent Students in the spring as we did the prior fall. Our Fall 2002 FTE ended at 4,416 FTE. The projected 4120 FTE is 93% of 4416.
