Summer/Fall 2024
We are entering the most active period for distance education students, as over 80% of our new admissions are within five months before the students' intended start term. It is very early to foresee what the Fall 24 will look like. However, comparative admits are steady, and enrollments are strong. One of the early positive indicators for the fall is that the overall headcount, including new and continuing, is high. This is practically good news as we have yet to register the bulk of the Talent Together (TT) and Grow Your Own (GYO) students for the fall term. These particular students will be enrolled in the next week or two. Numbers will spike earlier than last fall when the TT & GYO initiatives started. Registration for those cohorts happened in week 34; we are currently in week 18. Once we hit that week 34 mark, comparative numbers will be much more reflective of how the fall term will look. Unfortunately, that is very close to the start of the semester.
Summer highlights will only be included in the next couple of reports until May 20, when the summer term begins. Summer is reflective of the past Winter 24 and Fall 23 semesters. These gains are primarily from the TT & GYO initiatives. Yet, again, like those past two semesters, distance education student numbers are seeing moderate growth outside and beyond those initiatives.
Again thank you to everyone for your continued support.
