Background
The2012HLCSiteVisitTeamraisedconcernsregardingacollaborative,systemicandcomprehensiveapproachtocollectingandevaluatingdataasrelatedtoenrollmentplanning.Specifically,theteamnotedthattheUniversityneededtosetdefinitetargetsandgoalsandreflectevidenceofachievementofgoals.In2012,withinthecompletedUniversityStrategicPlan,StrategicGoal#4focusesonimprovingtherecruitment,retention,andgraduationoutcomesofadiversestudentpopulationthroughanurturingandchallengingenvironment.Inaddition,itfacilitatesthedevelopmentofstudentswhoarecompetent,creative,resourceful,global,andempoweredcitizens.TheobjectivesofStrategicGoal#4are:
1. IdentifyandenhancestrategicpartnershipswithfeederentitiestofostergreaterenrollmentnumbersoffreshmenandtransferstudentsthatspecificallytargetAfrican-Americanmales,culturallydiversestudents,adultlearners,andindividualswhohaveahistoryofsuccess;
2. Createandpromoteacomprehensiveacademicsupportsystemthatwillfosteranenvironmentwherestudentswillenroll,progress,andgraduatefromCSUwithinsixyears;
3. Developandcommunicateclearlydefinedrequirementsforsuccessfulprogressionthrough

The2012HLCSiteVisitTeamevaluatedCSUonpastHLCsitevisitsandmonitoringreports.Theynotedwithintheirreport,the2003SiteVisitTeam’sconcernsregardingtheUniversity’slowgraduationratesandrecognizedtheimpactofenrollmentontheinstitution’sresources.HLCrecommendedthatCSUcompletemonitoringreportsin2006and2009relatedtoenrollment.HLCmadeaFocusVisitinSpring2010.ThefocusvisitreportwasacceptedbyHLCwithafullvisitculminatingin2012.ReaccreditationforCSUwasapprovedbyHLCin2012withthecaveatofcompletingaCommunicationsMonitoringReport,anEnrollmentPlanningReport,andanAssuranceReportin2016.

In the2012HLCSelf-Study,CSUdocumented that theUniversity tooknecessaryactions that impactedenrollment such as dismissing students for failure to meet satisfactory academic progress (SAP),increasingtheacademicstandardsforadmission,andsunsettingsomeacademicprograms.(AppendixA).

TheUniversity’soverallgoal,asoutlinedinCSU’sstrategicplan,ACCESS,istogrowenrollment,increaseretention, improve graduation rates for all students, and maximize the current resources of theInstitution.
SectionI.Enrollment,retention,andgraduation(ERG)metricsfromFall2012throughSpring2016
EnrollmentEnrollmentplanningisessentialtotheenrollmentcycleofCSU.Inadditiontotheplan,therehavebeenchangesintheawardingoffederalfinancialaidthatimpactedenrollment.Examplesofthisarechangesinthewaysatisfactoryacademicprogressiscalculated,changesinPellGranteligibility,andtherevisionofcriteriaforcrediteligibilityforParentPlusLoans.ThesefederalchangesimpactedtheCSUstudentswhoareeligibleforsomeformoffinancialaid.Enrollmentplanningstrategieshaveincludedtrainingfaculty,staff,andadministratorsonunderstandingtheirroleintheawardingoffinancialaidtostudentsatCSU.
InFall2012,CSUimplementedchangesinacademicareasandstudentsupportservicestomaximizequalityinstruction,enhanceassessment,increasestudentsupportservices,rebuildthepublicimageandbrand,improvecustomerservice,realignbusinessprocesses,andreemphasizeadherencetofederal,state,andinstitutionalpolicies.CSU’senrollmentdeclinedoverallby22%fromFall2012throughFall2015.EnrollmentinFall2012was6,107studentsand4,767inFall2015.AlthoughCSUimplementeditsenrollmentplanningstrategiesunderthestrategicplan,thelargestdeclinehasbeeninthefirsttimefulltimestudentcohort.Inresponse,CSUimplementedseveraltargetedprogramsforthispopulation.Forexample,CSUiscontinuingtoprovidestrategiessuchasanorientationforallnewstudentscalledCougarStartU;restructuringthefreshmenexperiencetothefirstyearexperience;andofferingasummerbridgecoursetosupportremediation.CSUhasalsoutilizedalumni,staff,andstudentstoaugmentandexpandrecruitmenteffortsandoutreach.
CSUeliminatedcourseofferingsat12of itsoff-site locations.Studentsat theseoff-site locationswerenoteligible for financialaidasadditionalapprovalswereneeded.Therefore,all siteswerecloseduntilappropriateapprovalswereobtainedfromtheIllinoisBoardofHigherEducation(IBHE)andDepartmentof Education (DOE). The College of Education (COE) had several program courses at these off-sitelocations.CSU’senrollment, specificallywithin theCOE,decreasedby17% (209) fromFall 2012 toFall2015.
Throughtheprogramreviewprocess,academicrequirementsoftheBoardofGovernors’(BOG),anon-traditional degree program, were deemed less rigorous than other University traditional academicprograms.Therefore,theBOGprogramwassunsetatCSUinFall2011andadmissionssuspended.The

last studentmatriculated through theprogram in2014. InFall2012,BOGstudentenrollmentwas629andinFall2015itwas229,a64%decrease.ThisprogramtransitionedtoanewGeneralStudiesprogramhousedintheCollegeofArtsandSciences.
The University College (UC) program is a conditional admissions program where students takeMathematics, English, Reading, and Freshmen seminars. If students do not pass these courses, theyremain in UC and do not transition to their major degree programs. An admission process changeoccurred in the UC program. This caused a decrease in the conditionally admitted first-time full-timefreshmen.PrioradmissionrequirementsonlyincludedanACTscoreof15andGPAof2.0.Currentcriteriarequire a minimum ACT score and GPA on a sliding scale. Additionally, new program requirementsmandatethatallUCstudentscompletearigorouspre-admissionsinterviewwithacommitteeoffacultyandstaff.TheUCprogramenrollment inFall2012was387studentsandasofFall2015therewere83studentsenrolledintheprogram.
