Sculpting Enrollment (Concept)

Phase 0 Pre-Implementation

• Purpose inform deans and BOT of new enrollment
  planning process
• Deans meeting(s) presentation(s)
• Review BOG enrollment growth funding model
• Describe purpose of Enrollment Planning Workgroup
  
• Discuss the concept of strategic enrollment
  management
• BOT presentation
• Present enrollment submission to state and
  describe concept of sculpting enrollment

Phase I Growth Targets

• Review historically funded FTE growth
• Agree on target for annual new FTE dollars
• Develop directional goals
• Grad Undergraduate
• FTIC Transfer
• Arts Sciences
• Part Time Full Time FTE
• In-state Out-of-state
• Other?
• Model FTE as a function of the above ratios and
  growth
• Lower
• Upper
• GradI
• GradII

Phase I Deliverable

• Desired enrollment growth funding by year for the
  next 20 years (2015, 2025)
• Mathematical (Excel) model
• Compute funding model rates and current ratios
• Conduct what-if scenarios by changing rates and
  growth factors
• Based on desired new funds and ratios, select
  UCF FTE targets by level for 2015 and 2025

Output Phase I FTE Targets (University Level)
8
Phase II College Level Targets

• Develop program level headcount targets 2015 and
  2025
• Dr. Bishop and Dr. Schell lead the shaping of the
  targets for graduate and undergraduate programs
• Consider FT/PT mix, direction of growth, rate of
  growth
• UAPS will provide a tool to help develop these
  targets in a more user-friendly way

9
Phase II Deliverable

• Mathematical (Excel) model will compute estimated
  program level FTE using the headcount targets and
  compare with overall university (Phase I) FTE
  targets
• Show difference between current program level
  projections and targets

Output Phase II FTE Targets (Program Level)
10
Phase III College Level Involvement

• Enrollment Planning Workgroup meetings
• Schedule 2 meetings (Grad UG) with each college
  during EPG regular meeting time other times
• Dr. Bishop and Dr. Schell lead the discussions
  with the college coordinators and/or deans
• Discussion will include
• Potential for use of web delivery
• Regional plans
• Variation between current projections and targets
• Data support from UAPS

11
Phase III Deliverable

• Negotiated set of program level targets
• College coordinator/dean agreement to plan
• Implementation ideas from the colleges

Output Phase III FTE Targets (Negotiated
Program Level)
12
Phase IV Operational Planning

• Understand the resource requirements of the plan
  on the college and/or department level
• For example, the impact of the service load of
  GEP courses (depends of major and FTIC/CCT mix)
• Develop incentive plans or funding options
• Develop control charts to track performance
  against targets
• Program and university level
• Web and Regional teams implementation plans

13
Phase IV Deliverable

• Incentive dollars committed
• Tracking of progress
• Action plans for strategic
• Recruiting
• Retention
• Admissions

Output Phase IV Actions (Implementation of Plan)
