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.
In this on-demand virtual forum, a panel of national experts and practitioners will discussed:
- 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.
Host: Jeff Selingo, author and former Chronicle editor
Panelists:
- Maura Flaschner, Assistant Vice President, Undergraduate Admissions and Student Success, Florida Atlantic University
- Todd Rinehart, Vice Chancellor for Enrollment, University of Denver
- Oliver Street, Associate Vice President, Enrollment Management, Howard University
