OBSERVATIONS & KEY STRATEGIES

SEATTLE

The 2016 fall freshman class reflects a 2016‐2020 plan to stabilize class size at 6,500 students of whom at least 4,300 will be Washington residents.

o The fall class will enroll a record number of resident students – approximately 4,400.o The fall class will enroll a record number of under‐represented students.o The fall class maintains academic profile.

While stabilizing class size at around 6,500, we will modulate this number according to graduation outcomes.

o The Office of Institutional Research is refining an enrollment projection model that associates incoming undergraduate student numbers with progressive overall undergraduate enrollment levels and projected degree production.

o The better our graduation rates become, the more enrollment capacity we will create.

The University will continue to monitor significant changes in the competitive enrollment environment.

o For example, the University of California system sharply increased new undergraduate enrollment levels this year and will do so again next year. UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, and UC Irvine are all primary competing institutions for the UW for both resident and non‐resident students.

OBSERVATIONS & KEY STRATEGIES

Freshman applications surpassed 3,000 for the first time in history.

Some new yield strategies appear to have increased the freshmen yield, resulting in a substantially larger freshman class.

For the future we are focusing on process‐related issues that have delayed timely responses to applicants and believe it will improve our yield.

We are developing strategies to better target the Hispanic and first generation students earlier in their High School careers.

We are developing closer collaboration to improve transition from our primary feeder schools.
