The Year Ahead: Enrollment Issues and Solutions
Every fall, colleges are faced with the buzz of incoming students. While exciting and busy, it’s also a period of evaluation and reflection, as administrators examine their enrollment successes and failures — of which there are likely many.
Join Jeff Selingo, author and former editor of The Chronicle of Higher Education, on October 16 at 2 p.m. ET for “The Year Ahead: Enrollment Issues and Solutions.” During this virtual forum, a panel of national experts and practitioners will discuss:
- How test-optional policies are impacting enrollment.
- What happened with the botched rollout of the revised federal-aid form.
- How race-conscious admissions affect class diversity.
- What admissions and enrollment could look like in 2025.
With Support From MARKETview.
